Scotland must match Robinson’s expectations

Writing in The Times, Lewis Stuart previews Scotland's opening clash of the autumn against Fiji.

"Forget Fiji, the biggest challenge for Scotland’s players this afternoon, when they play the Pacific Island nation at Murrayfield is to show that they can live with expectation. In his first game as head coach, Andy Robinson, has laid down the standards he is demanding and has made it clear that he will not accept players falling short.

"On paper, it is a dangerous match for his side. Fiji are a place ahead of Scotland in the international rankings and the last time the teams met, during the 2003 World Cup, they were in the lead until the 77th minute."
