MATCH NOTES This was Scotland's first win against Ireland since September 2001. The last time Scotland scored as many as five tries was when they notched half a dozen against Romania in Bucharest in June 2005. Henderson’s hat trick was the first by a Scot in international rugby since Chris Paterson’s treble against Japan at Perth in November 2004. This was Jason White's first test after a nine month layoff due to injury. Fergus Thomson was making his test debut for Scotland. MacLeod last played for Scotland against South Africa in June 2006. Hogg's and Murray's tries were their first for Scotland.
