It was special night for Donnie, who came through 15 months off with a knee injury that refused to get better. His quick thinking laid on the try for Sam. "It was a special moment running out there," he said in The Times. "After being out for such a long time, it was fulfilment of my goal. I had a wee moment to myself but after that I was just concentrating on the game."
Sam's delight at getting his first game for Scotland grew even greater with his try. "It was a great feeling to be out there," he said. "I was a bit nervous to start with but once I got into the game, it was a huge buzz."
