In fairness Scotland had done nothing whatsoever before the injuries.

Yeah I think that's probably true although missing Russell is massive. He's so important to their attack.

I said before the tournament that the loss of Cummings, and Christie would be every bit as impactful as the loss of Tuipolotu. They were both badly missed today.
