Scotland urged to seal clean sweep

RUGBY: Flanker targets Fiji after helping tourists to victory over Australia

- ROSS ALEXANDER

Having beaten Australia, Scotland’s next task is to complete a clean sweep of their summer tour by adding Fiji to their list of scalps.

So says Hamish Watson, the Scotland flanker fresh from scoring the winning try for Gregor Townsend’s side in Sydney.

“Fiji in Fiji is not going to be an easy test,” he said. “They have some amazing players.

“We will enjoy the win (against Australia) but then put it to one side and concentrat­e on the Fiji game because they pose a lot of threats.

“The win over Australia was an amazing result. It is great for Scottish rugby and great for all the fans. An amazing victory, definitely my career highlight.”
