The only concern I do have is I'd like to see a couple more months (of data) put together here before we declare this torrid, hot economy as into another phase of gearing down. I'm not as optimistic yet that we have slowed everything.

The players know there is pressure on us to beat Scotland. We have to show the form which got us results last year and forget Twickenham.

The positive thing to note is that they actually had improving results as the year went on. But they were going against a very easy comparison -- they were down 3% in last year's fourth quarter.

The potential of stem cells has been widely known for many years, but it is only recently we have started to make progress towards the ultimate goal of using them in patients. These results show it may be as little as five years before this advance can be used to directly benefit patients for a huge variety of illnesses and injuries.

The power play is based on results and not how many chances you get. We missed a chance to get points last night, so it magnified the importance of this game.
