Scotland crashed out of the Hong Kong Sevens at the quarter-final stage when going down 26-12 to perennial title challengers Fiji.

Ally Warnock got Scotland off to a great start by slicing through to score in the first minute of the game. Fiji steadied themselves and hit back with a try from former Waikato flyer Filimoni Bolavucu before Epeli Dranivasa took advantage of a poor Scotland scrum to slide over on the stroke of half-time.

Fiji's growing dominance continued into the second half with big Semisi Naevo Saukawa sauntering over from close range. Andy Turnbull answered back with a try to keep Scottish hopes alive but Fiji playmaker Jone Daunivucu put the result beyond doubt by striking from long-range at the death.
