Scots Abroad VIII (or let's spot the new messiah)

[Lizard]

Even under the little used "Scottish Sounding Name" rule?

[General Zod]

Scott Lawson starts for Newcastle.

[Mikey Brown]

Tuned in to Leicester vs Gloucester just in time to see Scott (actually playing 12) cutting a beautiful line through the defence and injuring himself.

Hobbled off but looked like a foot injury with seem like they can often be awkward.

Vellacott looks sharp. Worryingly I reckon he'll end up on England's radar.

Anyone know why Reid is nowhere to be seen in the LI team?

Glasgow could desperately use him. Sad.

Could be wrong but thought he got injured in their first game

Sorry, you're right. HIA. That's a while out for a head knock though - must be bad.

Looks like we have a bit of a LH crisis for the AIs then... No Dickinson, Sutherland, Dell or Reid. Step up Jamie Bhatti?

Would be interesting!

Blair Cowan red card for LI yesterday. Wouldn't have mentioned it, but it's worth seeing the look on his face afterwards if you get the chance. He looked a bit miffed.

I thought Dell was due back in October.

Other than that we are down to the following as SQ LH props on pro contrac(not necessarily ones I would use); Bhatti, McCallum, Allan, Traynor (now at Tigers), Cosgrove and Marfo.

Anyone else nipping up slightly at the thought of playing the AB's (undermanned or not) after the butt-fuc*ing they gave the Saffers at the weekend?

Pray for a downpour of Biblical proportions. It worked for the Lions.

[Mikey Brown]

Or bring back Simon Webster.

Hear, hear!

My god, what a specimen.

I believe this is what the kids call "Engaging Beast Mode".

"Lineout jumpers struggled in the wet conditions.."

The Scotsman, Monday, 20th November, 2017.

Leicester have signed Kyle Traynor and Jake Kerr.

Doubt either will get a look-in but I don't know much about Jake Kerr at all. Another hooker getting minutes will only benefit us though. What's his story?

Scotland u20s last year. Played at Watsonians a bit. Strong powerful guy for his age

Apparently was planning to step away from rugby for studies at Loughborough but had been doing pre season with the tigers and scored in a friendly. Must have impressed.

Denton on the bench for Wuss v Glos

Denton on the bench for Wuss v Glos

Thought he was fooked


Our LH options are pretty bad, if Traynor gets a sniff of a game he could be back in Scotland colours

[Big D]

Denton on the bench for Wuss v Glos

Good to see. He deserves an injury free run.
