WALES overcame a sluggish start to crush an error-prone and ill-disciplined Scotland 27-13 in the Six Nations on Sunday and make it two wins from two.
Fullback Leigh Halfpenny scored two tries and kicked 12 points and wing Alex Cuthbert also touched down for the hosts who scored 24 unanswered points in a rampant 15-minute spell at the start of the second half in Cardiff.
The Scots, who had more than held their own in the first 40 minutes and were level at 3-3 at halftime, were put to the sword after having two players sin-binned.
Scotland rallied briefly from 6-27 down with Greig Laidlaw getting his side's first try in five matches on his first start but it was too little too late as Wales confidently followed up last weekend's win over Ireland.
Wales now heads to Twickenham to take on England, also with two wins under interim coach Stuart Lancaster, on February 25 while the Scots must lick their wounds before hosting France a day later.
