A Year Out – Our Predictions For Scottish Representation On The British & Irish Lions Tour

It’s been a long time (2 years to be exact)  since we’ve seen the blonde mop top of Richie on the international scene, so at this point it would be quite a surprise for Gatland to plump for the tall man.There’s also the question of whether he would even accept a call up to tour, considering he repeatedly turned down a chance to join Scotland at the Rugby World Cup.

But should the committed family man decide that he’s up for it and manages to get a few good performances in at the preceding Six Nations, he will have every chance. Gatland picked him before in 2013, so clearly rates him.
