Those scintillating Scots dominate our Six Nations Team of the Week

Vern Cotter’s men are playing attractive rugby and had the added bonus of a win this weekend.

IT WAS ANOTHER disappointing weekend for Irish rugby, but not one entirely without its positives. However it was Scotland who stole the show on Saturday and their win over Italy earned them the majority in our Gameweek 3 Team of the Week.
