Scotland player ratings vs Samoa: Who shone and who flopped at Murrayfield?

Scotland player ratings vs Samoa: Who shone and who flopped at Murrayfield?

Lock: Ben Toolis – 7.5/10

One of the 25-year-old’s best performances, tackling and carrying relentlesly


Lock: Jonny Gray –  7/10

Lots of grunt work, but nothing really spectacular.


Flanker: John Barclay (captain) – 7/10

Communicated very well with referee, and continues to look the part as skipper. Worked very hard to shut down the Samoan back-row and did a lot of carrying first half. Give his all.


Flanker: Hamish Watson – 8.5/10

The lynchpin of the Scotland back-row earned his money today with a relentless shift at the breakdown, winning a number of turnovers. Excellent, yet again.


Number 8: Ryan Wilson – 7/10

Made a number of good carries, tackles, and even managed a turnover. The abrasive powerhouse took no prisoners.
