Darcy Graham scores four as Scotland inflict record defeat on Fiji
Darcy Graham notched four times to briefly move joint top of Scotland’s all-time try-scoring list, only for his fellow Edinburgh...

Did anyone watch this? I guess I should just @MN5 to save time.
WTF happened for the Darcy Graham's second try? The highlights I watched didn't show a close up of what happened.
Also, with a name like Darcy I thought for sure he was going to be an Aussie, but nope, born and bred Scot.

Rare breed in the backline these days. He must have Saffa blood somewhere.
Na, didn’t watch the game but no one visits Murrayfield and wins so I knew the result.
Big game next week, SA vs SA A. Should be a cracker !

@Nepia I flicked over about 15 in and Fiji had 2 YCs I think at the same time and had just conceded thier 2nd try, so I thought it would end up being a rout

I thought the first YC was harsh. Almost got the intercept and wasn’t a deliberate knock on.

The one that looked like a knock on?
Front on slowmo showed he went gutter the chip/grubber but shinned it. Legitimate try
