00:12Blistering first half display from Ricard Henderson's men.
00:16Throwing four tries to choke up a 20 point lead over the Welsh.
00:20Finn Russell in impervious and creative form tries from Blair Kinghorn.
00:25A double for Tom Jordan, his first for Scotland colours.
00:28And the returning Darcy Graham also got under Scorsese.
00:31It looked like Scotland were going to go on and choke up a really resounding victory
00:35when they got a fifth try through Kinghorn not long after the restart.
00:38But credit to Wales who looked pretty disconsolate in the first period.
00:42They showed fortitude and grit to come back.
00:45Unfortunate of a grandstand finish, Scotland took their foot off the pedal
00:49according to Captain Russell, to allow Wales to get a bonus point themselves
00:53and choke the deficit down to six.
00:56It means Scotland go to Paris next weekend looking to spoil the party.
01:00The French are desperate to win the Six Nations and they've choked up their own
01:04emphatic and statement-defining win in Dublin over the Irish earlier in the day.
01:09Which means that they have got all the aces going into the final round of fixtures.
01:14If they beat Scotland at the Stade de France,
01:17next time tonight they'll be the Six Nations champions.
01:20Some positives for Scotland in terms of how they performed in an attacking sense.
01:24Some negatives in the way that Wales back into the proceedings here at Murrayfield.
