All eight Warriors who took the field in last weekend’s 23-10 win over Fiji have been named in the Scotland team to Play Australia at Murrayfield on Saturday. Scotland head coach Andy Robinson is challenging the completely unchanged match-22 to improve their performance for the meeting with the world’s third ranked side. He said: “We are giving the players the opportunity to perform against the Wallabies, who are a top quality international side – the sort that everyone wants to test themselves against. “Competition for places is intense and we’ll be watching the Scotland A game against Tonga in Gala on Friday night very closely. “But we are saying to the players for Saturday step up this weekend and show improvement.” The players selected in the Scotland squad have some 611 caps between them and have scored 1,012 points in international rugby.
