@MN5 surprised at France. At least the likes of Christie/Sititi were kiwi kids.
I reckon the Scots should do some serious recruiting, cast off any less than perfect homegrown deadwood and go for 100% by the EOYT next year.
As a tier two nation they could make a play for Christie.

@Machpants Meaning he isn't a regular starter now. The other three are much further away from that status.
Started 9 of 14, I think, that's regular. And also started all the games directly after SR
But obviously if they played it would've been Cane, Ardie, and Beaudy 🙄

Yeah, I think it's rough to consider someone as foreign born if they're born in the UK as it's one political entity with freedom of movement.
Also, I assume foreign born for France doesn't include their overseas
