LONDON (Reuters) - Scotland are "massive underdogs" and have nothing to lose against Australia in their Rugby World Cup quarter-final on Sunday, prop Alasdair Dickinson said.

"I'd say from this World Cup, they are the form team so far, definitely. They were outstanding against England and showed how clinical they can be in that Wales match. It's going to be a huge test for us," Dickinson told reporters on Monday.
