Couple of omissions that continue to surprise - Barclay, Brown and Cusiter.

Good to see Toolis, Hidalgo-Clyne, Fife, Watson, Bennett all rewarded for good form. Astonished at Blake being included though, hasn't even played for Edinburgh yet and he's parachuted into the national squad.

Token 10 minutes v Italy for the lad - get him capped in case he's any good!

Agree re: omissions, although SHC has been playing well. Would have expected at least one of brown and Barclay in there, but maybe Big Vern figures they won't start, the focus is the next 5 years for him (inc 2 world cups) and he's better off picking youth if B&B won't start.

Still, optimistic as ever..!
