Dewey’s willing to play anywhere

ROB DEWEY maintains inside centre is his best position but is ready to rise to the challenge of playing anywhere Scotland coach Frank Hadden asks him.

Dewey’s willing to play anywhere

His position might be considered the hardest to defend, and the challenge facing Dewey has not been made any easier by the fact he is set to go head-to-head with Brian O’Driscoll, arguably the best outside centre in world rugby at the moment, who will be playing his first game since aggravating a hamstring injury against Italy on March 17.
