Scots find positives despite loss

Scotland 14 Australia 31

Williams, who finally seems to be making some progress despite a record which now stands at just one victory from nine Tests, will take heart from a gritty second-half performance.

He has plenty of reason to cheer after the RBS 6 Nations wooden spoonists outscored their opponents 14-3 in the second half, but so too Jones who will take considerable solace from the bruising contest.
