After eight games and almost a year, Wales finally got that winning feeling back on Saturday with a dour 24-6 victory over Scotland in the Six Nations.

The Welsh last won against Italy in March 2010 before going on to lose to South Africa (2), New Zealand (3), Australia and England but they managed a draw with Fiji.

Two Shane Williams tries and 14 points from the boot of James Hook outpointed two Dan Parks penalties, leaving the home side winless after two outings this season after they lost 34-21 to France last weekend.
