11. Lee Jones
Made a try-saving tackle on North early in the match and keen to come off his wing. 6

Nippy service and a solid game from the Scotland scrum-half. 6

Put under pressure by the inexperienced Wales front row at scrum time. 6
2. Stuart McInally

A steady performance from the Australian-born lock. 6
