Figure image

Luke Hamilton has been called up by Scotland for the upcoming Six Nations Championship.

Hamilton has been named in a 40-man squad after making his international debut against New Zealand in the autumn.

Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend, said: “It’s a bigger squad than we originally planned –which is largely down to the competition for places – with a number of players having performed well in the Autumn Tests and a few others putting their hands up for selection in recent weeks.

“We are looking forward to working with them and the rest of the squad to ensure that we build on the momentum the players generated in 2017.”

Scotland begin their campaign on Saturday, February 3 away to Wales before hosting France on Sunday, February 11. They welcome England to Murrayfield on Saturday, February 24, travel to Ireland on Saturday, March 10 and finish away to Italy on Saturday, March 17.
