Watsonians stand-off Andrew Skeen has been named in the Scotland Club International squad for the second year in a row.
|
|
|
|
'Skeena' has been in top form over the last couple of months and was instrumental in the recent victory over Glasgow Hawks. With last year's stand-off Murray Strang not in the squad, hopefully the man from Berwick will get a start in Wales or Ireland.

|
|
|
Best of luck to him, former Watsonians winger Matt Couper, ex-GWC pupil Richard Snedden and the rest of the squad.

A squad of 35 players will gather at Murrayfield on Sunday for training in preparation for the matches against Wales on Friday, February 8 at Caerphilly (kick-off 2.30pm) and against Ireland at Donnybrook, Dublin on Friday, February 22(kick-off, 7.30pm).
