Scottish Lion big Nathan is once again in the headlines for a dangerous tackle. Can’t have been that bad as I didn’t even notice it but according to the BBC breaking news he will serve a one week ban, taking him out of the second Test vs South Africa. Doubtful he would have been selected ahead of O Callaghan or Shaw who now seem to be front runners to take over from Wyn Jones. The team announcement has been moved to tomorrow.
