Wales thrash Scotland

[Skandi]

Scotland 13-26 Wales

Six Nations champions Wales began the defence of their crown by comfortably beating Scotland at Murrayfield.

Wales claimed two of their four tries via Tom Shanklin and Alun Wyn Jones in a devastating eight-minute first-half spell with Scotland reduced to 14 men.

Prop Geoff Cross, who injured himself taking out Lee Byrne in the air, was yellow-carded and then stretchered off.

Poetic justice!

Murrayfield is a very difficult place for any side to play, and I don't know whether to comiserate or congratulate you (you being half Welsh). We've got the old enemy next week! B-r-i-n-g-I-t-O-n!!

Will update my six nations thread with the scores and table.
