Overview
- Scotland, which overturned a 10-point half-time deficit on Saturday at Murrayfield, scored four unanswered second-half tries to beat Fiji 33-17.
- All four second-half tries were scored by replacements — Pierre Schoeman, Jamie Dobie (two) and Scott Cummings — underlining the decisive impact of the bench.
- Townsend made 14 changes to his starting line-up before the match and said in-game alterations and substitute carrying helped turn the game in Scotland’s favour.
- The game featured multiple injury issues, including Jonny Gray failing an HIA, Darcy Graham forced off after a blow to the side, and Gregor Brown leaving with cramp, which influenced late personnel choices.
- The result finishes Scotland’s summer Nations Championship tour and leaves coaches weighing selection, player fitness and role changes — including the returns of Jamie Dobie, Gregor Brown and Duhan van der Merwe — ahead of 2027 preparations.
