Speed the key for Scotland

Speed the key for Scotland

Scotland head coach Andy Robinson has called upon his team to play with pace against England this evening.

England travel to Murrayfield looking for their first win on Scottish soil since 2004.

However, Robinson believes that pace will be the key to his side preventing the English from ending their losing streak.

"That's how you win rugby matches - it's about the speed you play the game at," said Robinson.

"To disrupt the opposition with that speed and the chaotic nature of the game is important.

"It's also about being able to keep your heads as well, to play within that chaos."

The two nations last met at the World Cup, with England coming out on top 16-12.
