Former Scotland full-backQuote MessageScotland have got to get their re-start sorted out. It's end to end. I did say I didn't mind if Samoa scored a few tries as long as Scotland won. I am sitting here relatively calmly...for now."

Scotland 10-15 Samoa (Leiataua)
This is like that England v France game at the end of this season's Six Nations.
End-to-end basketball-style scoring with defence a mere afterthought.
Manu Leiataua rumbles through the ragged Scotland defence as Samoa keep the ball alive.
We are scoring at nearly two points a minute as it stands.

Scotland 10-10 Samoa (Seymour, con Laidlaw)
It was a ridiculously loose pass under the sticks from Samoa that gave the ball away. Kamikaze rugby and Tommy Seymour flicks it up and regathers to score.
Nothing wrong with that.
Laidlaw slots two more to level up.

Scotland 3-10 Samoa
Charge down! Scotland's Tommy Seymour regathers and dots down. But is there a knock-on in amongst all that?

Scotland 3-10 Samoa
Gavin Hastings
Former Scotland full-back on BBC Radio 5 liveQuote MessageThat came easily for Samoa. They have played all the rugby and are looking a very confident side. If you didn't know otherwise this is being played out like a straight shoot out as to who finishes second in pool."

Scotland 3-10 Samoa (T Pisi, con T Pisi)
It was a lovely score, all deft hands and clever angle and Matt Scott's despairing tackle could not force Tusi Pisi into touch.
Pisi steps up and clips over the extras.

Scotland 3-3 Samoa
Samoa in at the corner. But the line call and the grounding are both in question.
This is getting the full forensic treatment from the video official upstairs.

Scotland 3-3 Samoa (Laidlaw)
Toulouse and Samoa prop Census Johnston is sporting some frankly ridiculous hair. And he draws further attention to his fluffy top/shaved sides combo as he nosedives south at scrum time.
Penalty against Samoa. And it is very kickable.
Greig Laidlaw steps up and slaps through.

Scotland 0-3 Samoa
Samoa have started the game firmly on the front foot, running hard at the Scots.
They have had over 80% possession and playing the game in the Scots' half.

Scotland 0-3 Samoa (T Pisi)
Jumper taken out in the line-out and Samoa have another penalty.
Fly-half Tusi Pisi steps up, takes a peek at the sticks and whacks clean through the middle.
That has taken the atmosphere off the boil at St James' Park.

Samoa number eight lays down the gauntlet at the breakdown, clamping down over the top of a tackled Scot, sealing off the ruck almost airtight.
Scotland pinged for hanging on and Samoa boot down into the Scots' 22m.

Samoa running hard, thumping the ball up with big runners as is their want. They are building some impressive momentum with some deft offloading shifting the point of attack as well.
Promising, but then they stray offside.
Scotland clear up towards halfway.

Here we go. South Africa's Jaco Peyper is in charge and Samoa chip up to the ten-metre and regain possession immediately.

I suspect that will be less warm and fuzzy and more fire and passion when this one gets going.
The teams are on the pitch. At anthem time Stuart Hogg only just holds it together as Flower of Scotland blares out.
He looks bang up for this. Kick off imminent. First Samoa's Siva Tau.
