Unfinished business motivating Lineen

SCOTLAND A coach Sean Lineen has a bit of unfinished business to settle with the Irish Wolfhounds in tonight’s A international at Ravenhill (7.30pm).

Last year Scotland went through an A programme undefeated until they came up against Ireland, and Lineen says the Scots still feel aggrieved at the loss.

Clearly determined to start off the season on the right note, Lineen has been party to the selection of Mike Blair as captain and Euan Murray at tight head prop to give the visiting side an edge in terms of British and Irish Lions experience.
