Scotland winger Darcy Graham tells BBC Sport: "It was good to get back out there, it's such a different atmosphere, the hype starts early.

"It's been frustrating not playing the last couple of Six Nations but I'm happy to be back.

"We've got a couple of things to work on but the carries I got influenced the game and some big moments off the back of that which I'm happy with.

"Credit to Italy today, they were a quality team. The improvements they've made over the last few seasons are incredible. It was a really hard game and I think the boys were a bit nervous about the first game.

"They build the scoreboard and that kind of puts pressure on us to go away from our gameplan. It's a massive win for us, a massive start to our campaign and plenty of things to learn for next week.

"Penalties kept them in the game, it was our mistakes, so it was just about sticking to our gameplan and wait for somebody to bring that spark."
