HibeeJibee Posted Wednesday at 19:59 Share Posted Wednesday at 19:59 On 01/03/2024 at 15:43, HibeeJibee said: Arrested... Charged... Former Scotland rugby captain Stuart Hogg charged by police - BBC News Former Scotland captain Stuart Hogg was arrested outside his ex-wife's home last weekend, according to a report. Hogg, who retired from rugby ahead of the World Cup last year, is said to have been arrested on suspicion of causing fear and alarm by acting in a threatening or abusive manner last weekend. He appeared to have attended an event alongside various celebrities, posing for photos with the likes of actor Martin Compston and chef Greg Wallace, to watch his former side take on England in the Six Nations at the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium. However, he was just hours later arrested at his old family home in Hawick, Roxburghshire, at around 5pm on Sunday. Police were also reportedly called at the start of the year when Hogg was, according to The Sun, involved in a boozy New Year's Day family bust-up at his brother's house. Hogg, who now carries out occasional punditry work, split with his wife Gillian last year just weeks before the birth of the couple's fourth child, and soon went public with his relationship with jockey and Sky Sports presenter Leonna Mayor. Seriously messed-up. On 07/05/2024 at 15:02, HibeeJibee said: Ex-Scotland rugby captain Hogg ordered to stay away from estranged wife - BBC News Hogg pleads not guilty - but ordered to stay away from wife, after being charged with failing to comply with release conditions Former Scotland rugby captain Stuart Hogg has been ordered to stay away from his estranged wife and her home in Hawick ahead of his trial in the summer. The 31-year-old pleaded not guilty to a domestic charge of acting in an abusive manner towards the mother of his four children when he appeared at Jedburgh Sheriff Court. Not guilty pleas were also entered into causing fear and alarm during a disturbance in February, and not complying with an undertaking following Mr Hogg's release from police custody. Mr Hogg, who was accompanied to court by his parents, was granted bail with special conditions not to contact his estranged wife and not to enter her home in the East Boonraw area of Hawick. The former Glasgow and Exeter fullback retired from rugby union prior to last year's World Cup having amassed a century of senior caps and been involved in three British and Irish Lions tours. He remains Scotland's all-time leading try scorer and was awarded an MBE in the 2024 New year Honours List for services to rugby union. Mr Hogg will return to court on15 July for an intermediate hearing ahead of his trial on 30 July. Arrested... Charged... ... again: Stuart Hogg arrested again for breach of bail, return hangs in the balance : Planet Rugby Former Scotland captain and full-back Stuart Hogg has been arrested for a second time this year and will appear in court today. The 32-year-old was apprehended and charged at a property in Hawick for allegedly breaching his bail conditions and is due to appear at Jedburgh Sheriff Court today. This comes after Hogg was arrested in February after a Scotland Six Nations match at his estranged wife’s house for allegedly engaging in the course of conduct which caused fear and alarm. He appeared in court in May, where he denied abusing and stalking his wife Gillian, and was charged under section one of the Domestic Abuse Scotland Act, which alleges he engaged in a course of behaviour which was “abusive”. Hogg is set to stand trial on July 30 after he was granted bail, but Police Scotland confirmed today that he has been arrested for allegedly breaching his bail conditions. “Around 2 pm on Tuesday, July 2, 2024, officers attended at an address in Hawick and a 32-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with a breach of bail,” A Police Scotland spokesperson said. “He is due to appear at Jedburgh Sheriff Court on Wednesday, July 3.” The Scottish full-back announced his retirement from rugby ahead of last year’s Rugby World Cup in France but has since made a U-turn on his decision. He has signed a two-year deal, with an option of a third, at French Top 14 club Montpellier ahead of next season after reportedly fielding offers from Premiership outfit Newcastle Falcons and Japanese clubs. That deal could hang in the balance depending on the outcome of his trial. It is reported that he will take a massive pay cut from his most recent rugby contract with Exeter Chiefs, where he was believed to be earning a salary of around £580,000 a season. Reports in France suggest that he will be taking home around £350,000. Montpellier’s president, Mohed Altrad, confirmed that Hogg had signed a deal with this season’s Top 14 strugglers, who narrowly avoided relegation, but he was not listed among the club’s new signings ahead of the 2024/25 season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was slightly concerned by the line up, then saw the Canadian team, all home based except 2, 1 playing for Clifton (4 tier in England) and Dungannon (Irish 2nd tier) - wikipedia has them at Toronto Arrows but they went bust in 23 I think Ross McCann will cover 9 if needs be. Healy is a nailed on 10 and Steyn is a nailed on winger (along with his experience) whilst Mccann is still young and not long switched from rugby league. He's got 2 brothers. One plays for Preston and the other for Dunfermline. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can win our home games I'll settle for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I wonder if our mindset was we just turned up expecting to win last time vs the USA in Houston. That might have been the issue when we played Fiji in Suva, "we've beat Oz in Sydney so surely this is a win". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
