What position in defence is Donaldson? Whilst this is great it's odd that Forster hasn't been picked.

There's something wrong with that list. There's only 2 of the Hertz golden generation in that team. Mibbies theyre in the Under 16's or something.

Great news for the youngsters and can only get better with Jordan looking very good.

Somebody had pointed out elsewhere that Donaldson gets into the national squads ahead of Forster. Anyone that watches the under 20s rate him?

Agreed, strange Forster hasn't made it.

I think Donaldson is a FB rather than a CB.

So presumably the selectors preferred someone else at CB to Forster, despite his recent excellent performances. :rolleyes:

Anyway, great news for these young lads. :thumbsup:

Donaldsons a CH, has been on the bench most of the season, unfortunately for him he got injured the same time as mcpake

According to his page on the official site, he can play either right FB or at CB. :wink:

So can PH and RM ;) Was just saying why I think Donaldson is in the Scotland squad while Forster was getting picked ahead of him for us. The laddie certainly has taken his chance and it bodes well for the future with both of them.
