Bridge of Allan rugby star Russell carves up Wales as Scotland start Six Nations with a bang

Finn Russell was at his brilliant best as he pulled all the strings as Scotland swept aside Wales to maintain their strong start in the Six Nations.

The Bridge of Allan maverick was at the centre of all the action as he used his kicks and varied range of passing to dictate the Scots’ attack in the 35-7 thumping of Wales at Murrayfield.

The 30-year-old made a number of errors in the opening half. However, after the break the Bath-bound fly-half was in the thick of the action as he controlled the match.

Playing right on the edge, the Racing 92 star confidently set up wave-after-wave of Scotland assaults against the beleaguered Welsh defence.
