Highlanders flanker John Hardie is reportedly a target of the Scottish Rugby Union over a proposed move ahead of the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

According to The Southland Times the back-row was contacted by Scotland but it seems it's a move that may happen later rather than sooner.

“I haven't really talked too much about that at the moment. It is [possible] but it's not really on my mind at the moment. I'm just looking forward to the next couple of years with the Highlanders,” said the 24-year-old who is eligible for Scotland through family heritage.
