WXV2: Australia v Scotland – Bryan Easson on comeback

Scotland confirmed their place in next year’s Rugby World Cup in England, with the tournament draw taking place on Thursday.

“The big goal for us was to be top eight [in the world rankings],” Easson said.

“That meant we know that we’ll get one of New Zealand, England, Canada or France.

“We then know that within the next pot you’ve got Wales, you’ve got USA, South Africa and Japan, and then you’ve got Spain, Samoa, Fiji and Brazil.

“So it’s going to be an exciting draw for us because there will be opportunity for us to really have a go at it and get to, we believe, the knockout stages.

“The top pot you could take anybody, it doesn’t matter who you get in there, it’s going to be a tough shift against those teams.
