Scotland: Muncaster hails ‘generational talent’ Graham

Ben Muncaster says Darcy Graham is a “generational talent” after the winger’s try against Portugal saw him draw level with Duhan van der Merwe as Scotland’s record try scorer.

Muncaster made his Test debut as the Scots ran in nine tries to win 59-21 at Murrayfield despite a dogged performance from the visitors.

Graham notched his 29th international try in his 41st Scotland appearance, and Muncaster was full of praise for his Edinburgh team-mate.

“He’s just absolute world-class,” the back-rower said.

“He’s a generational talent and to be in the same team as him is an absolute privilege.

“Sometimes he just does those things which no one else can do.”

Having got his first taste of international rugby Muncaster is keen to get more, whether that is representing Scotland A against Chile on Saturday or taking on the Wallabies in Scotland’s final match of the Autumn Nations Series at Murrayfield next Sunday.

“Even though this was a special day for me and my family, I want to push on, I want to get as many caps as I possibly can,” said the 23-year-old.

“Whether I play in the Australia or the Chile game, I’m going to give it my absolute all and hit the ground running a bit more. I’ve got some game time in the national shirt, so yeah, I can’t wait.”
