WITH a 13 playing at 15 and a 15 at 10, it might look like the Scotland team for tomorrow’s first Test against Argentina was at sixes and sevens. In the circumstances, however, Gregor Townsend’s selection is a credible answer to the questions posed by the personnel available to him.
That does not mean it is a cast-iron guarantee that the three-Test series will begin on a winning note in Jujuy. Far from it. But if Rory Hutchinson and Blair Kinghorn in particular justify the faith the head coach has shown in them, we should at least see a very competitive performance from the tourists.
