Ruiradh McConnochie is called up to the Scotland 6N squad three years after winning the last of his England caps.
I know it’s the rules and I don’t blame the guy, or Townsend for picking him but to me it devalues international sport.
I’m fine with it. Getting his international training wheels before switching to a decent team for a real go at test Rugby. Long may it continue.

The tan lines and facial hair are a dead giveaway

Was a clip on TV1 sport tonight for the 6N launch and on one side you had Sexton saying the waist height tackle rule was stupid, as was Andy Farrell, and on the other side, Owen Farrell saying it was a good move...
Sexton having had numerous head knocks
Farrell having hit his shoulder to numerous heads -
@taniwharugby yeah Owen works for England rugby I guess.

111 line outs!
-
@Machpants I wonder if that was before the forced into touch law too. There was a law/rule that I vaguely remember it, if you were close to touchline and taken over by opposition, it was 'forced into touch' and so your team got to throw in!. Mind you lineouts were such a lottery in those days, it wasn't really an advantage.
Shit the games changed a bit since I first watched or listened as I only did in those days! Back in thsoe days the reserves acted as touch judges even at test level if I recall rightly! -

Yeah, but what a message to send to your own squad. I don’t think it was coincidence that Henry seemingly lost the Wales dressing room after the Lions tour. He’d worked wonders in transforming the confidence in the squad then hardly picked any.

Looks likes a form XV.
I noticed that Keith Wood didn't pick any Irish in his Dream Team.
