The Wallabies, meanwhile, were one of the stories of the tournament with back-row duo David Pocock and Michael Hooper hogging the headlines with their exceptional performances.
Scott believes the way the game is played is changing and with the players at BT Murrayfield - plus the nous of head coach Alan Solomons and arrival of backs coach Duncan Hodge from the Scotland setup - they can follow the example of the world's best.
"At the World Cup you saw teams playing off forward pods, not just off nine the whole time," Scott told the Courier. "If the best teams in the world are doing it, it must tell you something.
"We've got the foundation, one of the best packs in the league with one of the best front rows in Europe and phenomenal depth in our back row.
"We need to move our game on and we have guys like Nasi Manu who are really good with ball in hand, guys who can play that style, as Alan says, it's the next step for us.
"Duncan Hodge coming on board is going to be really good for us, he is going to be pushing us to vary our play a bit more."
And, looking to the future, Scott admits he has been impressed with teenager Blair Kinghorn, who started at full-back against Connacht last weekend and retains the jersey against Munster this afternoon.
"I can't believe he is just 18," he added. "When I was his age I was nowhere near ready to play professional rugby.
"He has done exceptionally well. I played a good two or three years with Currie and I had played British and Irish Cup, so I had a decent amount of senior rugby under my belt when I came in. But he has just come straight from school to this level and has been really impressive.
"He's very composed, I've been impressed with the way he has taken it all in stride. He will get better and better I'm sure."
