The Scots were roundly beaten by reigning champions South Africa in their opener but bounced back with a triumph over Tonga and brutal 84-0 crushing of Romania last time out.

They enter their final clash of the pool stage with an all-or-nothing situation before them.

The Scots recorded an eye-catching victory over the host nation France in an RWC warm-up clash, and almost followed it up with a second triumph one week later in Saint-Etienne.

Townsend has committed his future to the team through to 2026 and will be determined to convert standalone massive performances into consistent winning form.
