Scotland’s Victory Over Australia Sets a Benchmark, According to Josh Bayliss

Try-scorer Josh Bayliss stated that Scotland’s recent triumph over Australia indicates that Gregor Townsend’s team is “building towards something.” Bayliss, who was introduced from the bench, executed a superb finish to score the third of Scotland’s four tries. This helped the hosts conclude their Autumn Nations Series with a 27-13 victory against the Wallabies. The Bath back-rower expressed his enjoyment, saying, “It’s always great to come into this environment, and I’ve had a great last four weeks, absolutely loved it.” He further commented, “The boys are brilliant. I think we’re really building towards something, and that’s exactly how we wanted to finish it off out there, with a win against Australia and I thought we really built that win.” Reflecting on his experience, Bayliss noted, “I made my debut against Australia in the autumn three years ago and to play them again and get another win, that’s the most important thing for me, to win for Scotland, for this country, is incredible.” He underscored the team’s commitment to continued advancement, asserting, “We don’t want to take any steps back, we’ve made this progress. What’s really important for us is to keep looking forward and this is a benchmark now, we just keep building on this.”
