peasy23 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Scotland 7s squad. Typical amateur hour stuff from the SRU that they can't even source a picture of one of the squad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honestly united Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Barclay retires from international rugby after 76 caps. Could probably have reach the 100 mark if he hadn't been frozen out for so long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ritchie, Bradbury, Watson, Skinner and Fagerson are ready now. I'm sure Barclay could be persuaded to come back in an emergency. It's also good for Edinburgh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it probably is the correct call also. Better to bow out now than not be picked for the 6N squad, saves the questions and speculation etc. Im also sure he has got an eye on a media gig during the tournament also, i remember him being quite good while he was out injured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Laidlaw, Wilson and Seymour must be thinking it. Still plenty to to offer the game, but probably been overtaken by some youngsters coming through in the same position. Wouldn't be massively surprised if Taylor and Maitland decided to drop out as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And although Tommy is probably done at Test level we are only a couple of injuries away from starting him. The same goes for Wilson, he might currently be the 6 or 7th back row but you need 4 in the 23 and 5 or 6 in the wider squad. It's time for Laidlaw to stand aside though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he is, but Maitland is 31, probably isn't making the next world cup and might decide he prefers just playing for Saracens and having summer holidays. I think he'll probably do the 6 nations, but that might be it, especially if it's another shiter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Only five for me! I managed 7, and that includes Jim Telfer.Nakawara has finally had his contract terminated by Racing 92. Would love to see him back in Glasgow, but doubt the SRU would stump up the cash. Sale were already talking about making a move for him a couple of weeks ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow are certainly making noises about being in for him. It sounds like he was happy at Glasgow before, and maybe hasn't been at Racing. I don't know, if we can somehow sell it as coming home to the club and city that loves him he might come back. If he just wants to make loads of money we've no chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Would be a huge signing for Glasgow to get Nakarawa - he's one of the best players in the world and fits right in with how Glasgow want to play 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Dismal start to the 7s season for Scotland in Dubai as they are going to end up in 14th place after losing to Kenya. They lost all 3 section games, losing heavily to Australia, going down 24-21 to the USA, then losing to Ireland by a point with the Irish scoring with the final play of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Jacobsen Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Seems that Nakarawa was punted for "deplorable insubordination". Didn't realise that w****r, Heyneke Meyer, had turned up at Racing... Spoiler He hasn't but he punted Djibril Camara from Stade for hurting his feelings and then punted Sergio Parisse for refusing to retire. Man's a c**t. Thankfully, he's no longer Stade coach. No secret as to my thoughts on Nakarawa. Bring him back and make him the highest paid player ever purely for upsetting Racing 92. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get him to drop a couple of stone and back to being the swaggering offload king he was before. I'm starting to get too excited about this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
