Rugby: Your Views on Scotland's Display

Colin Wilson, Gorgie: "The back row was immense again and I thought the scrum was back to its best and the line-out was superb. If we had that referee the week before he would have sorted out the English cheating and I reckon we would have beaten them."

Alex Graham, South Side: "I don't really think Scotland played an awful lot better than they did in any of the other games, they just managed the situation better and saw the game out. Great result though."

David Campbell, Morningside: "It makes you wonder what might have been. Pretty much the same as every other year."

Alan Kay, Leith Links: "When Ireland got level and they had all the pressure I thought they would go on and win the game. So fair play to Scotland for having the guts to win it. Parks showed plenty of bottle with that last kick."

Iain Reilly, Stockbridge: "No complaints with the forwards but there is still no cutting edge in the backs. Ireland looked really dangerous behind the scrum – we didn't."

Eric Lawson, Oxgangs: "Scotland win and the Jambos win – a good day all round."

Ray Roberts, Colinton: "A great win and a fantastic performance. Well deserved for the grief they've had in the last few weeks."

Allan Cunningham, Gyle: "This has got the makings of a decent team but there are still a lot of weaknesses. I hope Robinson uses the tour to Argentina to bring through some youngsters."

Stuart Clark, Craigleith: "Forward pass by a mile for the first Irish try and the second one looked kind of dodgy as well. But, we got the rub of the green this time, so I'll take that and celebrate with a Guinness."

Chris Barnes, Dunbar: "It's a win and we scored a try so that's good, but it would be wrong to think everything is okay. This team need to be consistent."

Rob Archibald, Trinity: "This result just shows that there isn't really much between any of the teams."

Charlie Morrison, Dudley: "I know Dan Parks was man of the match again but I still think that fly half is the problem area. We need somebody who can get the backs moving."
