Pity, I liked Hines, but hardly a surprise. Time for Scotland to move ahead with younger lads.

Did the jobs that was required of him, the move to 6 for a couple of his last few games didn't pay off, but back at lock he did the bizz for us every game.

Been a great servant to Scottish rugby, just a pity he couldn't have gone out on better terms.
