Scotland v Argentina descends into chaos amid 12 tries, mass brawl, shocking incidents and six cards

Scotland v Argentina was the perfect antidote to a lacklustre Wales performance in their shock defeat to Georgia on Saturday afternoon, but the Murrayfield fixture didn't exactly have fans off their seats for all the right reasons.

There were 12 tries, attacking flair to delight viewers and Scottish fly-half Finn Russell was the star of the show and had a role to play in all eight of his team's scores, prompting further head-scratching as to how he could have been omitted from the squad a matter of weeks ago. Darcy Graham scored three of those, Sione Tuipulotu claimed two, and Duhan van der Merwe, Cameron Redpath and Stuart Hogg also crossed.

But the game also had six cards — one red and five yellows — a mass brawl and two nasty challenges, one which saw a player remain on the pitch despite appearing dazed.
