Richie Gray pulls out of Scotland squad
Scotland have been dealt a blow with the news that Richie Gray has withdrawn from their squad for their Six Nations opener with Wales.
The 28-year-old lock underwent rehabilitation for the injury with his club, Toulouse, and did not feature in their 37-15 Top 14 win over Oyonnax at Stade Ernest-Wallon at the weekend.
The Scottish Rugby Union confirmed Gray’s withdrawal for Saturday’s clash in Cardiff via their Twitter account.
