Scotland desperate to end Welsh hoodoo

Scotland are desperate to shake off their Six Nations losers tag today against Wales, says back-rower David Denton.

The Scots have lost eight straight games in the championship, their worst ever run in the 17 years since it was expanded to six teams.

And last week’s 15-9 defeat to England wiped away almost all of the pre-tournament optimism that had been built up since last year’s encouraging performance at the World Cup.Denton confessed he and his colleagues are fed-up with their rotten run of results and the grind of trying to explain where the team is going.
