Scotland squad update
15 Mar 2015
The Scotland medical team provided a squad update following yesterday’s RBS 6 Nations loss to England at Twickenham Stadium.Centre Matt Scott sustained a bang to his thigh, with the resulting ‘dead leg’ forcing him to be replaced by Greig Tonks after the interval.Jim Hamilton suffered a back spasm following a collision in the game and was replaced by Tim Swinson as a result.Tommy Seymour strained his elbow after competing for the ball in the air and Blair Cowan sustained a calf contusion in a separate incident, though both were able to finish the game.Finally, Alasdair Dickinson, has a leg injury that will require further attention in the early part of the week.These named players will work with the medical team to ensure a speedy return to training.A number of other players required the attention of the medical team for soft tissue complaints, but are not currently considered a cause for concern for the next, and final, RBS 6 Nations Championship match.
