HAVING written a lot about the Scottish Rugby Union’s disgraceful decision to join our national Seven into a Team GB for the HSBC World Sevens Series, along comes an occasion to prove the folly of such nonsense.
The Rugby World Cup Sevens will take place this weekend in Cape Town in South Africa and Scotland’s men – our women are not taking part in the simultaneous Women’s World Cup Sevens - go there with no chance of winning but with the right spirit of competing for the sake of the game which, as I constantly remind you, was invented in Scotland.
