“We have a strong pool of talent joining us this summer and it’s definitely going to be fun to be a part of.”

Doesn't load in turkey. Nor does wiki thanks to their government. Any chance of details please. Could always use a VPN or get TOR if you are in Turkey for a long period of time. That probably counts as encouraging dissident behaviour over there mind.... |

Or Huffor. I'm sure there was something in the paper that they'd be selected in future. |

None of the 3 were available. Because they're off earning a living. I'm not sure how the commonwealth games can work given the timing of the tournament. |

Ended 108-44 for Scotland
Pretty comprehensive victory and hopefully a step in the right direction in terms of Commonwealth Games inclusion.

Hardly a surprise. Leopards hammered Wales and (somehow) got relegated.
There's a chance Scotland will get in the games but, as I like bamfield and respect the work he's put in, I can't see Wales ever being even mentioned when they invite teams
