It wasn't that long ago that every time a Scottish team was announced we trundled out the 'Usual McSuspects' headline but suprisingly in the team to play Canada in Vancouver this weekend there is just one Saint selected, Matt Stewart. With the retirement of John Leslie, injury to Budge and Wee Tam taking a well earned holiday its down to Mattie to keep the kilted Saint tradition going.

In the replacements for the Canadians is former Long Buckby player Kevin Wirachowski while recently departed Steve Brotherstone warms his behind on the Scottish bench.

15 Glen Metcalfe, 14 Rory Kerr, 13 Andy Craig, 12 Brendan Laney, 11 Chris Paterson, 10 Duncan Hodge, 9 Mike Blair, 8 Jon Petrie, 7 Simon Taylor, 6 Jason White, 5 Stuart Grimes, 4 Nathan Hines, 3 Craig Smith, 2 Gordon Bulloch, 1 Matt Stewart (NORTHAMPTON SAINTS).
Replacements: 16 Steve Brotherstone, 17 Allan Jacobsen, 18 Andy Hall, 19 Donny McFaddyen, 20 Graeme Burns, 21 Marcus DiRollo, 22 Ben Hinslewood.
