Scots end Autumn Series with commanding win over Wallabies

Scotland capped their Autumn Nations Series with a dominant 27-13 victory over Australia at Murrayfield in Edinburgh, scoring three second-half tries.

After trailing early to a Noah Lolesio penalty, Scotland led 7-3 at halftime through Sione Tuipulotu’s try and Finn Russell’s penalty.

The second half saw standout performances, including a spectacular try by Duhan van der Merwe, reclaiming his spot as Scotland’s all-time try scorer. Substitute Josh Bayliss and orchestrator Russell added further tries before Harry Potter’s late response for the Wallabies.

The win marks a strong series for Scotland, with three victories from four matches, having also beaten Fiji and Portugal while losing to South Africa.
