Winning start for Robinson as Scots see off Fiji

THE Andy Robinson era got off to a solid but unspectacular start as Scotland eased to victory in their opening autumn international against Fiji.

Tries from Johnnie Beattie – playing his first Test for more than two years – a dubious second from Graeme Morrison and 13 points from Phil Godman saw the hosts leapfrog their depleted opponents into ninth in the world rankings.

Fiji were in the game until Morrison’s score courtesy of a Vereniki Goneva touchdown, with Nicky Little kicking their other points.
