Canada defeats Scotland 64-26 in the WXV tournament

Summary

Despite the lopsided final score, Scotland managed to register four tries of their own. Rhona Lloyd, one of the try-scorers for Scotland, acknowledged that while there were patches where her team competed effectively, defensive lapses made them too easy to break down. Lloyd also noted that missed attacking opportunities and a lack of conviction in the final pass prevented a closer contest. The match is being viewed by the squad as the beginning of a new era, with focus now shifting to addressing breakdown and defensive consistency.

What they're saying

"
Rhona Lloyd says there are positives to take from Scotland's 64-26 WXV defeat to Canada, but admits they were too easy to play against as the visitors ran in 10 tries. Lloyd was among the try-scorers as the Scots ran in four of their own, and the experienced winger believes there were opportunities missed that would have made the final scoreboard much closer. "We knew it was going to be a tough game, they were second in the world for a reason," Lloyd told BBC Scotland.
