Alison Miller leads the way in rout of Scotland

Ireland 45 Scotland 12: Alison Miller ran in a hat-trick of tries as Ireland dominated Scotland at Donnybrook yesterday to finish third in the RBS Women’s Six Nations.

Miller was absent from Ireland’s first three matches of the campaign as she focused her attentions on Ireland’s bid to qualify a sevens team for the Olympics in Rio. The winger took just five minutes to open the scoring, after good work by Nora Stapleton.

“Hat-tricks are born out of the work of our forwards and other backs,” grinned Miller.
