What a dramatic fightback by a Scotland side that knew it had the attacking prowess to retain the Calcutta Cup on England's home patch and a historic double "back to back" Calcutta Cup win at Twickenham too!! What a relief to see a "worldy" Van der Merwe try, one of the best tries ever scored in a Six Nations Tourney, coupled up to that stunning victory as well, and fitting that the big man scored the winning try. Well done!!!

More importantly, the result and the manner of it zipped the Owen Farrell mouth and ego.
