Scotland’s men will be launching their latest Six Nations campaign against Italy this Saturday (February 7).
It will be the latest chapter for a Scottish men’s rugby union team that dates back to 1871 when they played their first game – a 1-0 victory over England at Raeburn Place.
Since then there have been hundreds of games in the Five and Six Nations (winning 14 titles including three Grand Slams), Rugby World Cups (where they made the semi-finals in 1991), globe-trotting tours, friendlies and autumn internationals.
Here are the 11 male players who have scored most points for Scotland in that time - as of the start of the 2026 Six Nations tournament.
