Aki dismisses Ireland's 10 game winning run in Murrayfield ahead of Scotland clash

"I think in the past few encounters we've had, they've all been tight games. They're a quality side, they've had a good November Series and every time I have played them they have always put us under the pump so we expect nothing less from them."

Bundee Aki has dismissed Ireland’s 10-game winning streak against Scotland as irrelevant to Sunday’s Guinness Six Nations showdown at Murrayfield.

The Ireland centre, a try scorer in the first-round bonus-point victory over England in Dublin last Saturday will take nothing for granted when Simon Easterby’s squad travel to Edinburgh on Friday looking to extend an unbeaten run dating back to 2018 and including seven consecutive championship matches, two World Cup pool games and a covid-era Autumn Nations Series encounter.
