The Scots’ [Club International] coach, Ian Rankin, said: “Our team is a good mix of experience and youngsters who’re making an impact in the Scottish Hydro Electric Premiership.
|
|
|
|
“Last season John Houston played in the centre for our team against the Irish and wind the clock forward to last weekend and he was in the Scotland A squad as a full-time pro with Edinburgh.
|
|
|
|
“My message to our squad is simple. There’s an opportunity for you here to win in the colours of your country and there also could be a chance for some to win a full-time rugby contract.”
