Dan Parks Trends Following Scotland Win


Parks vs Georgia

By Chris O'Brien

Cardiff Blues' Dan Parks was trending on Twitter after hitting fifteen points with the boot during Scotland's nervy World Cup win over Georgia.

ITV pundits were full of praise for Parks after his four penalties and drop goals made it two wins from two for Scotland. Parks kicked four penalties from seven attempts and also fired a fine first-half drop goal over the posts.

His kicking secured a win for Scotland against Georgia, but the 15-6 scoreline does little to suggest that Andy Robinson's men will make a significant impact Down Under this summer.

Georgia's Merab Kvirikashvili was on target with two penalties for the 7-1 underdogs.

Parks took over kicking duties from Chris Paterson, who started the game amongst the seven Scottish substitutes.

10,267 watched the game in wet, miserable conditions.

That says more about the quality of the ITV 'pundits' than anything else.
