Andy Robinson has insisted fighting fire with fire was Scotland's best chance of avoiding the wooden spoon in Saturday's final RBS 6 Nations match in Ireland.Robinson's side cannot afford to lose at Croke Park this weekend if they are to stand any chance of escaping the ignominy of landing Test rugby's most infamous booby prize.Despite earning plenty of plaudits for their performances, Scotland have failed to win any of their Six Nations matches since Robinson took charge.The former England and Edinburgh head coach therefore could be forgiven for abandoning his principles and simply try to spoil against an Ireland side who are odds on for yet another Triple Crown this weekend.
