[QUOTE="BPM, post: 968100, member: 59968"] I get why there is the inevitable inquest, but I think there are reasons for some optimism at least. It’s a good opportunity to get rid of some of the dead wood (like Laidlaw and Barclay) and to build around a pretty promising set of young players. I think there’s also a decent chance that some of the Scottish-qualified players in the England age grades will probably end up reverting to Scotland as Skinner did. Skinner and Hutchison could both have put themselves in the England frame with a sustained run of form so it’s not necessarily that they’re being rejected and more to do with the sheer amount of competition. It could prove to be the same for players like Redpath and Dingwall. [/QUOTE]
