What a bloody win for the Scots.
New Scotland boss Gregor Townsend is now 2 from 2 after his side secured a stunning victory over Australia on Saturday.
The win means that Ireland are set to leapfrog Australia into third place in the World Rugby rankings, and Scotland move up to fourth. Ireland needed a Scottish win, and to win themselves by 15 points or more (they won by 28) against Japan to overtake the Wallabies.
The rankings will be officially released by World Rugby on Monday.
