SCOTT LAWSON
Scott Lawson captained Scotland under-18 and went on to play under-19 and under-21 international rugby. His under- 19 honours included playing in all four of Scotland’s matches in the IRB / FIRA world championship in France in 2000, and he was awarded the David McGavin Trophy as Scotland’s under-21 player of the year in 2002. He has also played for Edinburgh under-16, under-18 and under-19. He played club rugby with Biggar and Melrose before he joined Glasgow Warriors in season 2003/04, then moved to Sale Sharks in summer 2007, joining Gloucester in September 2008. In May he made his first senior Scotland appearance in the non-cap 38-7 victory against the Barbarians. He scored his first try for Scotland on his cap international debut in 2005 against Romania in Bucharest and made his Six Nations debut as a replacement in Scotland’s 20–16 victory over France in the opening match of the 2006 championship. His first World Cup appearance also was marked with a try, when Scotland beat Portugal in 2007 in St Etienne. After the World Cup, however, he did not return to the Scotland squad until the final match of the 2008 RBS 6 Nations Championship, when he came on as a replacement against Italy in Rome. He marked his first appearance in the Scotland A team by
scoring a try against Australia A at McDiarmid Park, Perth in November 2006. In May and June 2007 he played in all three of Scotland A’s Churchill Cup matches in England, scoring a try against Ireland A. Two further A appearances followed in February 2008, when he featured in the wins against Italy A and Ireland A. He played three matches in the IRB Nations Cup success in Bucharest in June 2009, scoring two tries – one each against Russia and Uruguay – and five months later he was in the Scotland A team that beat Tonga 38-7 at Netherdale. His return to the national side came off the bench against France in the 2010 RBS 6 Nations opener at Murrayfield, replacing Ross Ford and he represented Scotland A again at Netherdale in November that year, in the victory over USA Eagles.
