Arron Reed Expresses Joy Over “Dream” Murrayfield Tries

Arron Reed described scoring his initial tries at Murrayfield as “a dream” after contributing two scores in Scotland’s 59-21 victory over Portugal. These two tries bring his total to four in three Test match appearances. During his debut home appearance for Scotland, Reed scored both tries in the second half, contributing to Gregor Townsend’s team’s total of nine tries in the match. The Sale Sharks winger commented, “I was lucky enough to score two but scoring the first one was obviously amazing.” He added, “It’s a dream isn’t it, scoring for Scotland, but scoring at Murrayfield makes it even better. I can’t really describe it in words to be fair, but it was good.” Reed emphasized the importance of making the most of every chance he receives in a Scotland jersey, given the strong competition for wing positions from players such as Darcy Graham, Duhan van der Merwe, Kyle Rowe, Blair Kinghorn, and the injured Kyle Steyn. He stated, “I’ve been in the past three camps and the campaigns have been good. I didn’t get a chance in the Six Nations, but obviously I got a chance in the summer.” Reed acknowledged, “Getting these chances and scoring tries, you’re obviously putting your name out there, but there’s obviously lads are ahead of me at the moment who were obviously playing really well.” He concluded, “It’s really good competition. We’re making each other better, but it’s good to get my name out there.”
