No end in sight for Russell as he eyes famous All Blacks win

Finn Russell is preparing for his 100th international appearance this weekend, a milestone encompassing his time with Scotland and the British and Irish Lions. Despite a storied career that includes domestic titles and multiple Lions tours, the fly-half remains focused on securing a victory against New Zealand, a feat Scotland has not achieved in over a century.

Russell acknowledges that his side must improve their efficiency inside the 22-meter line to overcome top-tier opponents, pointing to recent high-scoring performances against Argentina as a benchmark for success. While the upcoming Nations Championship will provide more frequent encounters with southern hemisphere giants, the veteran playmaker is eager to end the long-standing winless streak against the All Blacks during this current window.
