Scots Abroad VIII (or let's spot the new messiah) - The New Era

[BaldiePete]

Scottish squad players based outside Scotland are available for their teams this week since our match is outside the international window. In England it’s the Prem Cup so teams aren’t picking their strongest teams and none of the England based international players from the current squad are playing this week. Tomorrow we’ll see what the French teams do but they have a full card of Top 14 games so we may see some of our internationals playing there this weekend.
