Iain Morrison was far from impressed as Scotlan registered their first win of the Six Nations against Italy at Murrayfield. Read his views in The Scotsman.
"Scotland kick-started their Six Nations campaign with their first championship win over Italy in three years, although it was beer and sandwiches stuff rather than the champagne and caviar fare that was on the fans' wish list.
"...Other than the scores, the game had precious little to commend it. The ball spent too much time in the heavens above Murrayfield as neither side trusted themselves to attack from deep with the ball in hand."
