A similar thread came up in misc football and I went for the following.

Going Vogts era onwards (just because it's all I properly remember), here are the players who've had ten caps or more.

Goalkeepers

Rab Douglas

Craig Gordon

David Marshall

Allan McGregor

Defenders

Graham Alexander

Russell Anderson

Phil Bardsley

Christophe Berra

Gary Caldwell

Steven Caldwell

Stephen Crainey

Callum Davidson

Grant Hanley

Alan Hutton

Russell Martin

Stephen McManus

Jackie McNamara

Charlie Mulgrew

Gary Naysmith

Steven Pressley

Maurice Ross

Andy Webster

David Weir

Steven Whittaker

Lee Wilkie

Midfielders

Charlie Adam

Barry Bannan

Scott Brown

Colin Cameron

Kris Commons

Don Cowie

Christian Dailly

Paul Devlin

Graham Dorrans

Barry Ferguson

Darren Fletcher

Paul Hartley

Gary Holt

Paul Lambert

Shaun Maloney

James McArthur

Neil McCann

Ross McCormack

Lee McCulloch

James McFadden

James Morrison

Stephen Pearson

Nigel Quashie

Gavin Rae

Barry Robson

Scott Severin

Robert Snodgrass

Gary Teale

Forwards

Kris Boyd

Stevie Crawford

Paul Dickov

Steven Fletcher

Kevin Kyle

Kenny Miller

Steven Naismith

Garry O'Connor

Jordan Rhodes

Steven Thompson

Worst XI out of that lot:

Rab Douglas

Maurice Ross - Steven Caldwell - Christophe Berra - Stephen Crainey

Gary Teale - Scott Severin - Nigel Quashie - Paul Devlin

Kevin Kyle - Stevie Crawford

Struggled to decide between Berra and Wilkie who are both miles out of their depth, went for Berra as he's had more caps. Don't think Crainey, Teale or Severin are/were particularly bad players, just the worst out of that lot and were never regular starters. Based on their careers overall O'Connor has clearly had it worse than Crawford, but based on what they did while playing for Scotland I've gone for Crawford.

People questioned the selection of Quashie IIRC.

Is it really fair to pick one cap wonders?

I'd put guys like Steven Caldwell and Scott Gemmill, who were in a pile of squads in my team rather than Gary Kenneth or Ian Black, who were (are) both woeful but only turned up once.

Kenneth has two caps.

Feel sorry for Paul Devlin. While I'm not suggesting he was an excellent player for us, I do remember that he always used to work his ar*e off every time I saw him play.

I don't remember him being that bad either.

Murty was solid enough for us to good player at Reading

And Broadfoot won us three important points,very harsh that call

Alan Johnston was a awful call to,played most of his career in the EPL

Phillips does not look like he can cut it,even though he has the pace for international level,been a headless chicken when he has played

I don't remember anything of his caps (2) tbh. Levein was quite effusive in his praise of him, but that means f all. Mind you, he's an EPL player now, so he's probably worth keeping an eye on.

Offered nothing when ever he has been involved,cant get a game for QPR in the championship.Doubt he will play in the big league again,will prob be laoned out to the championship,hope that I am wrong though.Just do not rate him fast but no end product,and zero tricks or skill like GMS who also has the same degree of pace and power
