Summary
Scotland have blown the Six Nations wide open.After previewing the match earlier in the week with Charlie Morgan of The Times, the Lekker Rugby Pod discussed the blueprint Scotland would need to beat France. At Murrayfield, that plan unfolded almost exactly as imagined.Finn Russell and Ben White controlled the tempo, the Scottish midfield stretched the French defence, and Kyle Steyn produced one of the performances of the championship. Scotland played with clarity, composure and physical edge, forcing France into mistakes and taking their chances ruthlessly.France arrived with the stronger metrics across almost every category. Dominant carries, tackle evasion, depth and star power all pointed their way. But when the pressure came, Scotland imposed their game and the French composure disappeared.We break down the key moments that swung the match, the tactical decisions that defined it, and what this result means for the final weekend of the Six Nations.
