Graham looks for a repeat against England
THE sight of Darcy Graham going over for his first Test try on his full debut against Wales last weekend was a rare highlight in what has been a bruising Six Nations for Scotland.
The diminutive Edinburgh wing finished
off a fine team move as the Dark Blues threatened to pull off a remarkable second-half fightback, only to come up short as they fell to an 18-11 defeat – their third on the bounce.
For a team who had high hopes of making a run for the title, one win from four games so far tells a sorry story. But Graham
can hold his head high after an impressive display on his first international start and the 21-year-old said he will cherish the memories for years to come.
“I really enjoyed it at the weekend,” he said. “I want more.
“To score my first try on my debut at Murrayfield was a really proud moment.
“Since I’ve been a little boy, scoring at Murrayfield was all
I ever wanted to do. It was just disappointing that we came up a bit short and didn’t get the win. But the moment I scored will stay with me for a long time.”
The Scots are heading back to London for the first time since 2017’s humiliating seven-try pasting from the auld enemy and Graham said: “We’re still hurting, so we want to make amends.”
