Ian Jacobs sent us photos from the match between Heriot’s Rugby and Southern Knights last weekend which ended with Heriot’s winning for the second weekend in a row.
The eventual score was Heriot’s 22 Southern Knights 16, regarded as the correct result among those who were there.
Live Edinburgh News interviewed Colin McCallum all about Heriot’s teams in the week before the match. He explained what Super6 will mean for the club.
These fixtures are part of the FOSROC Super6 tournament which is played by six franchise teams with part-time professionals. It is the new top tier of domestic rugby in Scotland and the hope is that it will improve playing standards. By developing Scottish players, coaches and match officials the talent should then trickle into the full-time professional game.
You can watch it on Scottish Rugby TV and the BBC Sport Scotland website. Each team will have at least three live broadcast matches with highlights from other fixtures available online at scottishrugby.org/ The six teams are Ayrshire Bulls, Southern Knights, Stirling County, Boroughmuir Bears, Watsonians Rugby and Heriots Rugby.
