You would think so. I know he has seen TO and the Dragons in the UK at almost every opportunity though. You could argue those players pick themselves, however.

He was also at the France A game at Wakey (I think) and Toulouse' win against Leigh as the LDC semis were the same weekend, so he's been about.

A few left out though Greseque, Taylor, Wynne to name three

Forgive me for being so out of date, but why is Greseque not in the squad?

Who are likely to be the halves (obviously Bosc is one but which half position does he take)?

Maybe 6, Bosc 7, Rinaldi 9, Bentley?

Interesting to see, Bentley aside no overseas born players in the squad
No Murph and none of the other possibles from the Dragons.

Dont know, Cant see it myself unless its some kind of Domestic fixture, would imagine Scotland would have no chance of raising a competetive squad of Pro players in May.

It would be nice to have 2 quality 9s like Kane and Rinaldi, with bosc and Maxime at 6 and 7 but Otherwise you could be looking at Moly at 7 and Id rather have my teeth extracted without anathestic.

Quite possible, Federale is the lower leagues in France and so then it would make sense for them to play a domestic Scottish side.
