Five uncapped players have been named today in a 41-strong Scotland squad for a training camp in Glasgow next week ahead of the viagogo Autumn Tests.The quintet are Glasgow Warriors’ Mark Bennett, Jonny Gray and Chris Fusaro and the London Irish back-row pair of Kieran Low and Blair Cowan.All are in contention for Scotland’s matches against Japan (9 November), South Africa (17 November) and Australia (23 November), tickets for which are on sale now via www.scottishrugby.orgSome 28 of the squad toured with Scotland during the quadrangular tournament in South Africa in the summer, while experienced campaigners who missed out on that trip through injury – including British Lions’ Ross Ford and Chris Cusiter and seasoned campaigner John Barclay – both return.The squad comprises 18 Glasgow Warriors players, 13 Exiles and ten from Edinburgh Rugby. Twenty of the squad attended state school in Scotland, six went to private school in Scotland and 15 were educated outwith Scotland.Scotland head coach Scott Johnson said: “This squad is about getting the job right for our upcoming Test matches but it’s also about the next 24 months as we build towards Rugby World Cup 2015.”As I said during the tour we need and want to expand our playing pool and within that we have to be clear on which of our long-experienced players will make the journey to the World Cup.”We have to make sure, too, that our young players, who have the ability to play international footy, get the mileage on the clock ahead of the World Cup.”Turning to the personnel selected, Johnson said: “I’ve been impressed with what I’ve seen from Mark Bennett and Jonny Gray.  They’ve been consistent, which is often a challenge for younger players, and they’ve shown the resolve to get better.”He described Bennett and Gray, both former Scotland under-20 captains as “quality athletes” and then explained the choice of the London Irish back-row players, 22-year-old Kieran Low and 27-year-old Blair Cowan.”Low is a good, young player who is athletic and big enough to play at lock or blindside and we don’t have many players who can do that.”One of the lessons from the South African tour, and especially given the attritional nature of the position, is that we must increase our back-row depth and compare the skills set of the players there.”We know Ross Rennie is coming back to fitness and Chris Fusaro is an out and out 7. Cowan is a good, tough, energetic player who can play in every back-row position.”Mark Bennett, a product of St Joseph’s Academy in Kilmarnock, Cumnock RFC and Ayr RFC, before he became a professional, said: “It’s an honour to be selected for the squad.  What I have to do now is work even harder on my game with Glasgow Warriors and with the Scotland coaches in camp next week to have the chance to play for my country.”Jonny Gray, who was educated at Calderglen High School in East Kilbride and played at Cambuslang, RFC, Hamilton Bulls and Currie en route to a professional contract and the 2012 Macphail Scholarship to New Zealand, said:  “I feel very privileged to get this chance. I’ve learned a lot at Glasgow Warriors and I’ll be determined to benefit from this experience.”Cowan, qualifies for Scotland through his Dunoon-born mother, Joan, who is a keen triathlete in New Zealand. Low’s eligibility rests with a paternal grandfather, Wilfred Henry Low, who was born in Dingwall.Of his decision to opt for Scotland, Cowan said: “The Scottish side has always been a strong part of my family, my career really kicked off in Great Britain and Scotland’s always been the country, in my mind, that I wanted to represent.”Low, who has previously represented England under-20, told www.scottishrugby.org:  “Committing to Scotland was an easy decision to make. I want to grab the chance to play international rugby.”Elsewhere in the squad, Nick De Luca and Max Evans, who were both omitted from the summer tour, are recalled. Johnson said: “We gave them time off to have a proper off season and it’s now important for us to see where they are.”He added: “We’ve chosen a large squad as we want everyone to be clear of our immediate campaign and our journey towards 2015.”This is the start of our A programme too and Shade Munro, who will coach the A team against England Saxons again when they come to Scotstoun in the New Year, will be at the training camp.”Scotland squad for training camp in Glasgow (27-30 October) in preparation for viagogo Autumn Tests:Backs:Mark Bennett (Glasgow Warriors) Age 20 UncappedChris Cusiter (Glasgow Warriors) Age 31 Caps 62Nick De Luca (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 29 Caps 38Alex Dunbar (Glasgow Warriors) Age 23 Caps 3Max Evans (Castres) Age 30 Caps 35Tom Heathcote (Bath Rugby) Age 21 Caps 3Ruaridh Jackson (Glasgow Warriors) Age 25 Caps 21Sean Lamont (Glasgow Warriors) Age 32 Caps 79Greig Laidlaw (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 28 Caps 21Sean Maitland (Glasgow Warriors) Age 25 Caps 5Henry Pyrgos (Glasgow Warriors) Age 24 Caps 9Matt Scott (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 23 Caps 15Tommy Seymour (Glasgow Warriors) Age 25 Caps 2Duncan Taylor (Saracens) Age 24 Caps 3Greig Tonks (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 24 Caps 1Tim Visser (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 26 Caps 12Duncan Weir (Glasgow Warriors) Age 22 Caps 5 Forwards: John Barclay (Scarlets) Age 27 Caps 41John Beattie (Montpellier) Age 27 Caps 24Kelly Brown (Saracens) Age 31 Caps 58Blair Cowan (London Irish) Age 27 UncappedGeoff Cross (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 30 Caps 22David Denton (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 23 Caps 14Alasdair Dickinson (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 30 Caps 27Ross Ford (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 29 Caps 68Chris Fusaro (Glasgow Warriors) Age 24 UncappedGrant Gilchrist (Edinburgh Rugby) Age 23 Caps 3Ryan Grant (Glasgow Warriors) Age 28 Caps 10Jonny Gray (Glasgow Warriors) Age 19 UncappedRichie Gray (Castres) Age 24 Caps 31Jim Hamilton (Montpellier) Age 30 Caps 48Rob Harley (Glasgow Warriors) Age 23 Caps 5Alastair Kellock (Glasgow Warriors) Age 32 Caps 55Scott Lawson (Newcastle Falcons) Age 32 Caps 38Kieran Low (London Irish) Age 22 UncappedMoray Low (Glasgow Warriors) Age 28 Caps 21Pat MacArthur (Glasgow Warriors) Age 26 Cap 1Euan Murray (Worcester Warriors) Age 33 Caps 56Alasdair Strokosch (Perpignan) Age 30 Caps 35Tim Swinson (Glasgow Warriors) Age 26 Caps 2Jon Welsh (Glasgow Warriors) Age 27 Caps 2 Invited to train with squad: Stuart McInally and Ross Rennie (both Edinburgh Rugby) Injured: Stuart Hogg, Peter Horne, Peter Murchie and Ryan Wilson (all Glasgow Warriors) and Steve Lawrie (Edinburgh Rugby)
