I did not really watch the JWC and was wondering if there was any Scotland player that was great and could possible get a call up to the RWC training squad or at least look like the possible future of the team along with Gray.

Thanks for your responses.
 
Nah

Not really mate - Scotland were pretty average. BTW, what happened to Alex Grove? the guy looked promising, and certainly better than Morrison, but I never saw him again. Same with Ben Cairns. Scotland can't rely on Max Evans forever...
 
Copy 'n paste

None of the forwards impressed me in particular, we pretty much got thrashed in the scrums, line-outs were a mess and they were just basically bullied.

In the backs, as with his performances this season might haved suggested, Duncan Weir was a class apart from any other Scottish player, performed excellently with the little, erratic ball he got. His kicking was very competent.

The lad that went to train with Clermont, Mark Bennet, wasn't to shabby either, and Kerr Gossman showed a bit of pace and had some good runs.
I liked the look of the scrummy as well, can't recall his name though

Unfortunately, I couldn't get much in viewing terms of the last 2 games
 
For this WC coming - No.

For the future - What LordHope said with, however, the caveat that your pack were boys against men. Its hard to predict what will happen when they grow up.
