Laidlaw praised after Scotland stun Aussies

Scotland captain Ross Ford had no hesitation in handing the ball to match-winner Greig Laidlaw before he kicked the last-gasp penalty to secure a memorable 9-6 win over Australia in Newcastle today.

Laidlaw secured Scotland's first win over the Wallabies on their own turf in 30 years when he slotted home his kick, after the final hooter had sounded, in atrocious conditions.
