WALES kick-started their RBS 6 Nations campaign as they edged past Scotland 26-23 at Murrayfield.

Warren Gatland's men lost their opener to England last week but hit back with tries in either half from Rhys Webb and Jonathan Davies.

Kicker Leigh Halfpenny chipped in with 16 points as Wales put a dent in growing Scottish confidence after full-back Stuart Hogg had given the hosts an early lead in Edinburgh.

Jim Hamilton barged over in the last few seconds to draw Scotland to within three points but referee Glen Jackson called time before the home side could mount one last push.
