Chloe Rollie’s try, converted by Meryl Smith, secured a bonus point for Scotland and, despite USA hooker Paige Stathopoulos powering over 14 minutes from time, Bryan Easson’s side won for the fifth successive time.

The weather was dreadful but the playing surface was great so there is no real excuse for such another poor standard of play from both sides. Dragons just the better team.

The WRU have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done quickly to avoid rugby being lost to our future generations.
