Savage Henry Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I guess the logic holds that the players who have been called up will be midweek subs so it's better not to weaken the home nations by calling up the best players. That said, Finn Russell is Scotland's best stand off, so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye Rieko is one of my favourite players to watch right now. It was good watching him knock Nowell from pillar to post 10 days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
same_ol_g35 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I think some players getting called up will be kept for the duration of the tour. The comment about being sent back after the Hurricanes game was only referring to these no mark shirt filler Welshmen as a way to justify their selection as bench filling bodies.

Just cheapens the jersey tho. Felt it was really disrespectful to the players called up. Certainly not the way to inspire players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has always happened. Andy Nicol became a Lion by going on holiday at an opportune time. I think players realise the situation and know they can get a shirt if they grab the chance.
