Kinghorn Urges Scotland to Translate Strong Autumn Performance into Six Nations Title Bid

Following Scotland’s 27-13 victory over Australia on Sunday, in which Blair Kinghorn played a role, Kinghorn has stated that the team must now build on their encouraging autumn performances by mounting a serious challenge for the Six Nations title. Scotland concluded their Autumn Nations Series with a notable win against Australia, having secured three victories out of four matches. Their only loss during the series was against the world champions, South Africa. “I think we know we need to be able to back it up,” Kinghorn commented. He further elaborated, “We’ve said it many times before, we’ve been playing well, we’ve had some good wins here, but we’ve never really backed it up properly. It’s now time to put us on the block and hold us to our word.” Kinghorn also mentioned, “We’ve had a lot of good conversations in camp about taking ownership, about the team, it’s not all down to the coach, it’s about you guys on the field. So it’s time to put our neck out there and do what we know we can do.” He concluded by saying, “It’s always good coming into Six Nations having won your last Test match. It’ll be a good year, hopefully.”
