Greig Laidlaw

The Scotland rugby team is facing a scrum half dilemma according to the assistant coach Mike Blair. The head coach Gregor Townsend has a major decision to make ahead of their game against Wales on February 3. Townsend has to choose a fitting scrum half to start the crucial game in their opening Six Nations fixture.

Greig Laidlaw is returning to full fitness to join Henry Pyrgios and Nathan Fowles ahead of the game. The three are the options Townsend has. Blair is happy that Laidlaw played ten minutes off the bench and ahead of the schedule but then Ali Price has been stable in the team in the autumn series.
