Good on him!

 

[Alec]

Not exactly a big achievement, but good luck to him.

 

[Broncoman]

Great to have someone named Wallace in any Scottish team well done Peter. Great to see that more than a half of the team are Scottish home grown players a sign that Rugby League is growing internationally.

 

[Old Mate]

Plz let him Captain and defeat Australia, the ultimate ginger man.

I hope he kills it. As much as I'm glad that he moved on, I'm a big fan of Wal as a bloke and hope he does well the rest of his career.

How did he even make the team?

Haggis McScottishterrier and Lochness Irnbru have been in much better form. What a jip.

I'm pretty certain that almost ever player in the Scotland squad is either Australian or English with Scottish grandparents. from the story on the World Cup site I think the Scottish team only has one player who was born/trained in Scotland.

from the looks of it, the 'Scottish' team is about as Scottish as the 'Italian' team is Italian. rugby league might be growing internationally but it isn't happening in Scotland

Wallace was only picked on the proviso he changes his name to William.

True story.
