Scotland will conclude their 2024 Autumn Nations Tests at Murrayfield this weekend when they take on Australia in their fourth and final encounter of the series.
Gregor Townsend’s side have beaten Portugal and Fiji and lost to South Africa so far meaning a win over the Wallabies is essential to call the November run a success. Meanwhile, two Scotland players are currently having their own personal contest to hold the crown of the country's all time leading try scorer.
Wingers Darcy Graham and Duhan van der Merwe are neck and neck on 29 tires each going into the game as both look to edge ahead of their Edinburgh teammate in the standings. With that in mind, here are seven current Scotland record’s (men’s national team only) and their current holders:
5. Most points in a single match - Gavin Hastings
Hastings scored an incredible 44 points on his own against the Ivory Coast at the 1995 Rugby World Cup in South Africa. The final score of the match was 89-0 to Scotland with Hastings getting four tires, nine conversions and two penalties. | Getty Images
6. Most tries in a match - George Lindsay
This record goes all the way back to 1887 when Lindsay scored five tries in one match against Wales at Raeburn Place. Since then, there have been seven occasions where a player has scored four in a game including twice by top try-scorer Darcy Graham but nobody has ever equaled Lindsay's five. | SNS Group
7. Biggest winning margin - 92 points
Scotland faced Japan in a 20024 Autumn test which was played at McDiarmind Park, the home of St Johnstone FC, in Perth. Scotland won the match 100 points to 8 for a winning margin of 92, beating the 89-0 win over the Ivory Coast from 1995. | SNS Group 0141 221 3602
