At half-time Scotland lead Ireland by 17 points to nil.

The Irish performance remains ragged and the cause hasn't be helped by two early penalty misses by O'Gara.

Townsend missed two kicks for Scotland but Paterson has successfully taken over kicking duties.

Pountney and Smith scored Scotland's two first-half tries.

Half-time: Scotland 17-0 Ireland
