Last weekend's second round of Six Nations rugby saw Scotland extend their remarkable Calcutta Cup record with a statement win over England at Murrayfield.
Scotland bounced back from a poor opening day defeat in Rome and played like men possessed to demolish England in a dominant 31-20 win, reclaiming the victors' trophy and ending Steve Borthwick’s side’s 12-game winning run.
For those of us who originate from north of Hadrian’s Wall, watching Scotland’s national rugby team is a sometimes exhilarating, but more often a frustrating experience, with successive campaigns promising great opportunity but delivering precious little in reward.
