Romania have had a rough time of the tournament to say the least. A very unenviable fixture list for the The Oaks has led to some big scores thus far at the hands of Ireland and South Africa, but perhaps a ‘second-string’ Scotland side could be a target for an upset?
It proved not to be for the men in yellow, certainly not helped by their discipline, but ultimately down to a dominant Scotland showing. The result sees Scotland head into the last game of the group stages with some momentum after the required 10 points from the previous 2 games. It’s quite a position for Scotland to be in when we can name four Lions in a team whilst resting your starters, many of whom used to be the first names on the teamsheet, but did any of them do enough to book themselves a place in the 23 this coming Saturday?
Over 90% tackle success rate and a scoreless board for Romania sees Scotland collect 8 across the board for defence.
