Grand Slam Years: Wales 2012 - Wales v Scotland

What a game from Wales against Scotland as Warren Gatland's side won 27-13 on the road to the Grand Slam. The game had everything including 34 points in the second half. It turned out to be another memorable day for Leigh Halfpenny, who was a star performer for the Welsh.

great game some awesome tries by Wales, this was back when Cuthbert was a star. Scotland were only 10-3 down yet paniced and fouled johnathan davis and ended up playing with 14 men for 20 minutes.

[@bujin1977]

Bloody hell. Remember those days when Wales played with intensity and intelligence? And when Alex Cuthbert was actually quite a useful player...

you'll remember in the autumn tests 2012 we went on a losing streak right up to the 2nd game of the six nations yet we went on to win the six nations 2013, we were inconsistent then and inconsistent now,

[@scottjones3297]

@@rocksoliddude1 What about now? Do you think we're inconsistent now?

[@MrTashTastic]

@@scottjones3297 we are definitely more consistant now but i still think our attack needs serious improvement

[@MrKent1111]

@@MrTashTastic fingers crossed pivac can sort that issue out for us now bud!

Much of the difference is the willingness of Mike Phillips and his lack of kicking and giving away possession to keep running it and releasing the backs all the time.

Halfpenny and Jonathon Davies on fire this game!

Nice to see a video of a Wales match with the sound of the crowd, and not some shite club anthem.

[@pauldavies4496]

you are spot on.

[@GWLAD]

Gregor Townsend was involved with the Scotland rugby team even back then could this finally be Scotland’s year of winning the Triple Crown or the Grand Slam?

[@dylanbaker8443]

Clearly not because the welsh beat Scotland

[@HC-uf4tv]

11 years on and it’s the exact same wales team 😂

[@gordon1545]

These highlights miss an extraordinary moment, when a Scotland try was ruled out for a knock on at the line, when Hogg clearly held it off the ground. It was a typically shit call from Poite, and he didn't even bother going to the TMO.

imagine being george north's girlfriend ... she has her work cut out

[@benm1308]

She's an Olympic silver medalist so I'm sure she can handle it!

[@pauloliver1842]

if the english had a lee halfpenny, and george north's we would wreak havoc .....

[@TheDocfonz]

not entirely true , It would help the English cause but you would still need an Alun Wyn Jones

Never seen so many high tackles, those were the days. New rules have killed the game

[@sand9374]

No Wales ever do anything without playing 14 men?

[@waverunner3911]

Y have Wales so many non born Welsh player's like gorge North in ther team, most of ther team is born outside of Wales 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@Bradley_Allen]

Welsh parents means they are eligible to play for Wales.

[@rocksoliddude1]

George North moved to Wales aged 2, was brought up here and speaks Welsh. Ignorant Bok bastard.

[@pootytang7897]

What a joke Scotland are.

[@ryanthompson4214]

*were

[@pootytang7897]

Still are.

[@rocksoliddude1]

They should have beaten England 2012 though, bloody Hodgson and his flukey charged down kick.
