hi can anyone give me a 30 man squad for edinburgh and glasgow? including a best possible starting 22 cheers :bana:
I meant David Blair, Ben is Davids and Mike's youngest brother, probably why I got confused.
Lawrie hasn't really featured for Edinburgh yet so I didn't include him.
Cairns is prodominantly a 13, wing or full back. But since Dewey has left and Jorgenson has disapeared off of the face of the planet we don't seem to have a 12 (well, Matt Dey or Andy Easson but Dey isn't great and Easson is playing at Malleny this year) so I just shoved him there as I can't see the new coach having much of a free reign and being forced to play Di Rollo by the SRU.
De Luca will stuggle to get a start I think. Cairns, Maxwell, Webster and Southwell are all better players in my opinion.

Gave Kerr is better than Chunk, doesn't go about fighting most of the time.
Why no Cairns? He was consistantly one of our best players last season and is a dead cert for a Scotland cap in years to come. To omitt him is just plain daft. He's a far superior player to De Luca.
Given that Simon Cross is also captain this year, I can't see MacDonald playing ahead of him.
Godman cannot play 12. Lack of pace and size.
No Mustchin? Experience and a leader to boot, so I can't see him missing many games this season.
David Blair won't be a starting XV player much this year. Godman will be the number 10 with Ally Warnock being the subby stand off.
I actually got Lawrie and Traynor mixed up, i thought Lawrie was the ginger one.

I don't think we'll be as bad as the squad suggests. Of course, all depends on the coach that comes in. Certainly we looked good against Viadanna. We have a good back line, but my concern is the non internationalist pack. Without the experience of Kerr, Jacobson, Hogg and Callam we will maybe struggle up front.
Realisticly, it'll be mid table medoricty. Perhaps a re-building process for next season already. [/b]

Rennie is on load to a premier one team this season ( I think), I did include MacDonald.
As for Kerr/Allori that was a typo.
