Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend hailed his team's defensive efforts after they edged past Australia in a Nations Championship "arm wrestle" at Murrayfield.

Off the back of being dismantled by New Zealand last weekend, in which they failed to score a second half point, the spotlight fell on Scotland's leaky defence.

But on a chilly and damp Edinburgh day where physicality was king, they delivered a much-needed win and showed they are capable of winning ugly.
