Highlights are up, had not appreciated at the game just how good some of our tries were.

Dean instrumental in at least half of them.

Dean was excellent and with Blair looked fifferent class as a combination. Hope he gets resigned for next season .

Dean was very good. He'll be unlucky if he never gets a Scotland cap, we've capped plenty in the past who weren't as good as him when he's on form. May just be unlucky with the depth these days.

I haven't seen it yet.

It's very disappointing to see neither Lang nor Bennett who have looked in good knick and like a good partnership involved this weekend either.

Very unlucky not to have had a few caps and probably a tour with more inventive coaching would have brought the best out him. Ok he wasn’t playing the All Blacks but some of his slick play on Friday was so sharp it got lost in the pace of the game and is best appreciated in the video highlights. I note he got selected in the URC’s team of the week .

Bennet at very least deserving of a bench slot!
