SCOTLAND
Best player: Jack Dempsey
The Telegraph wrote: “Probably the pick of Scotland’s pack. At least he made it over the gainline a few times.”
Planet Rugby wrote: “The former Wallaby was one of Scotland’s best players as he did well on attack, gaining 68 metres from 14 carries while also doing his bit on defence with 12 tackles completed”
Rugby Pass wrote: “A couple of big carries – including one from a defensive 5 metre scrum.”
Worst player: Duhan van der Merwe
The Telegraph wrote: “A poor night for the winger. Lost ball in contact early on. Lost his cool in a second half scuffle.”
Rugby Pass wrote: “Too often his impact is mitigated in big games, and again tonight. Cut down and turned over with his first carry, then nearly held up with the second. Scotland found him with the clock in the red, then to sum up the evening, turned the ball over to mercifully put Scotland out their misery.”
