Jonny Gray has joined up with the Scotland squad ahead of Saturday’s Guinness Six Nations opener against England.

The Exeter lock was not present at the training camp in Edinburgh last week because of what the Scottish Rugby Union described as “an ongoing medical issue”.

Edinburgh’s Jamie Hodgson was called into the squad on a temporary basis.

However, Gray started for the Chiefs on Saturday in the Gallagher Premiership and scored a try in their victory over Gloucester.

A brief SRU statement read: “After missing the training week in Edinburgh, Gray has rejoined the squad in Spain.

“Jamie Hodgson has remained with his club.”

The story of Romania's Mariana Lucescu: The Stejarii ‘Madame Rugby’

Thanks FF. Half the Tier2 funding going to 3 pacific Island clubs is not good. The connection/proximity of these nations with New Zealand must raise a few eyebrows.

Romania has the history, so a re surfacing of Romania will have less barriers for that country. I also think World Rugby needs to be strategic. Spain has a common rugby hinterland with France. Targetting them could yield a massive breakthrough for International Rugby. Then you have countries with massive enthusiasm like Belgium who are just missing that bit of targetted investment to get them fully competitive in Rugby Europe.

'He was a true friend': Gryzz Wyllie's impact on Argentine rugby

My partner and I had always been cautious investors, but like many others, we fell victim to an investment scheme that promised high returns in the cryptocurrency space. The company had a sleek website, a compelling pitch, and even endorsements from supposed financial experts. It all looked legitimate—until it wasn’t. One morning, as I checked our crypto wallet, my stomach dropped. The 350 ETH we had transferred was gone. The platform was suddenly inaccessible, support emails bounced back, and the so-called “investment managers” had disappeared. Panic set in. My partner, Lisa, tried to remain calm, but I could see the worry in her eyes. This was our hard-earned savings, and we had been scammed. Determined not to give up, we scoured the internet for help. That’s when we came across Galaxy Ethical Tech—a company specializing in ethical blockchain investigations and asset recovery. Their reputation was impeccable, and they had successfully helped many people retrieve lost funds from fraudulent crypto schemes. With nothing to lose, we reached out. Galaxy Ethical Tech assigned us a dedicated blockchain forensics expert, Daniel, who listened patiently to our story. He assured us that their technology could trace our stolen Ethereum across multiple wallets, even if the scammers had tried to obscure the transactions. Using advanced blockchain analytics and AI-driven tracing, Daniel and his team mapped out the movement of our ETH. The scammers had funneled the funds through multiple wallets and mixing services, but Galaxy Ethical Tech’s algorithms identified patterns in the transactions. Within 72 hours, they pinpointed where the stolen Ethereum had been consolidated. The next step was enforcement. Galaxy Ethical Tech collaborated with cybercrime authorities and blockchain security networks to freeze the identified wallets. They also leveraged their ethical hacking team to monitor real-time movements and prevent further laundering of the funds.Within two weeks, we received an email that made our hearts race. A significant portion of our 350 ETH had been recovered! Galaxy Ethical Tech coordinated with an exchange compliance team to ensure the funds were returned to our wallet. The relief was overwhelming. We had gone from despair to gratitude, all thanks to the ethical, transparent, and highly skilled approach of Galaxy Ethical Tech. Their AI-powered forensics, legal partnerships, and ethical hacking had saved us from a devastating loss.Today, Lisa and I are more cautious than ever in the crypto space, and we actively educate others on avoiding scams. But if there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s this: when technology is used ethically, it can do wonders—even reclaim what was thought to be lost forever.Galaxy Ethical Tech didn’t just recover our Ethereum. They restored our faith in the power of ethical innovation.contact them via Email: galaxyethicaltech@mail.comWhatsapp: +15072712442Telegram: Galaxy_ethical_tech

Morgane Bourgeois’ Women's Six Nations notebook: The first edition

Morganne Bourgeois was not at WXV1. Maybe her kiking game should have been usefull there…

I think it's too soon to answer to your question. Since 2022 and the arrival of this staff, France have lost their way of playing ,the team regress every year and some picks are very strange. Séraphine Okemba was one of the 4/5 best and fastest players of seven , in this team she play 7 and makes lineouts and scrums. I am not sure she touch the ball in play saturday…

Aaron Smith and ‘three or four other All Blacks’ keen to play for AUNZ XV

If they are doing this can we a match against the Springboks and france(if they will send an A team to NZ) three matches for AUNZ would be entertaining and profitable. hopefully this prospects of those matches wont outshine the lions tour.

Hurricanes suffer playmaker blow, experiment with loose trio for Tahs

Some kind of review is required. Crusaders had half their team available (or less?) in 2023 and 2024. Hurricanes this year. Almost all during training. It’s a scandal. NZR paying these guys salaries to spend 50% of every year in rehab.

How John Mitchell is giving Red Roses a purpose in 2025

I initially felt like you, but I have changed somewhat as he has enough English back up staff and coaches to keep him grounded in our ways if necessary. On the the other hand perhaps we need someone who understands the NZ ways and takes the best to instill in the Red Roses game. NZ have been our closest rivals for many years and have largely come out on top when it matters - World Cup finals.

How John Mitchell is giving Red Roses a purpose in 2025

John Mitchell was NZs coach at the mens RWC 2003. He oversaw our second worst result. I genuinely wish the Red Roses all the best but they need an English coach who understands your game, your players and your mentality. JM is not the person

for the job.

How John Mitchell is giving Red Roses a purpose in 2025

Watching the last few rounds of the PWR, my feeling was that the opposition is a factor in selection. Kildunne does have weaknesses in her positioning for kicks, and was caught out of position on long kicks several times - there aren’t that many female kickers who can put up a long ball with a lot of accuracy, and I don’t think she’s used to facing them.


Sing is much more in the mould of a traditional fullback from the men’s game, both in terms of fielding kicks and sending them back, and I can see a role for her if England are facing a strong team with a powerful kicking game. She doesn’t offer the attacking threat that Kildunne does, but when you can also field Dow and Breach, you don’t necessarily need a running threat from all of your back three.

How Spain's gritty win over France highlights team's SVNS growth

I think when you think of expanding the game you need to look at countries like Spain.

Their improvement in 7s and 15s has been significant. If you can breakthrough in Spain then that is a seismic moment for world rugby. But will world rugby see this? Or continue with its money making agenda for Tier1s via ‘Nations Cups’ and it’s Mickey Mouse ‘World Cup’ which has been hithero a boasting rights tournament for a couple of teams.

Rugby down under could have hit high gear with Anzac Tests

A tad ungracious. The ABs side that got scalped in Chicago was - save for 2 locks - the same squad that had been on a 17 game win streak. A streak that included 40 PTS + wins against France and SA. 30 PTS+ wins against AUS.


They just got beaten at their own game that day and outclassed by the best 9/10 axis in the game at that time.
