Southwell: Scots face tougher test in Italian job

Frank Hadden’s men regained the Calcutta Cup with a 15-9 triumph at Murrayfield by virtue of a terrific defensive display reminiscent of the win against England in 2006.

Chris Paterson continued his remarkable form with four penalties — taking his tally of consecutive successful kicks at goal to 30 — while Dan Parks added another from long range.

Jonny Wilkinson countered with three penalties of his own, the first of which was enough to make him the highest points scorer in Test history.
