Gregor Townsend took over as head coach in June 2017. His first fixture as head coach was against Italy in Singapore where Scotland won 34-13. A week later Scotland defeated Australia 24-19 in Sydney, the second time in a row Scotland had won on Australian soil. The victory was made more notable by the list of absentees, such as Stuart Hogg and Grieg Laidlaw, who were in New Zealand on Lions' duty. The tour was concluded by a 27-22 loss to Fiji in Suva.

Victory over Samoa in November 2017 was followed by a breathtaking performance against New Zealand at a sold-out Murrayfield. Tries from Jonny Gray and Huw Jones brought Scotland to 17-22 with barely a minute to go, but it took a superb cover tackle from the All Blacks fly-half Beaudan Barrett to prevent Stuart Hogg from scoring a winning try. 

A week later Scotland registered a record win over the Wallabies, inflicting eight tries on the visitors in what was the Australian hooker Stephen Moore's final international game. Scotland won 53-24, their biggest ever margin of victory over Australia.
