Castleford dominate Scotland squad

Wed Jun 20 - Source: Castleford Tigers

Castleford Tigers were celebrating last night the news that four of their squad have been called up by Scotland, a bigger representation than any other side.

Adrian Vowles and Darren Shaw are veterans of last year's World Cup whilst Jason Flowers won caps for Scotland two years back, but missed out through injury last year.

For Ian Tonks though, if called into the final 17, it will be his first cap.

All of the players qualify for Scotland through the ancestry rule. Darren Shaw¹s mother is from Lanark, Adrian Vowles' grandmother is from the Mull of Kintyre, whilst Ian Tonks' grandfather and Jason Flowers' grandmother are from Scotland.

Scotland squad vs France in Lezignan on 3rd July:
P Anderson (Leigh), D Arnold (Salford), J Berry (Rochdale), A Craig (Widnes), S Cram (London), M Crowther (Hull), M Dixon (Hull KR), J Duffy (Leigh), R Fletcher (Hull), J Flowers (Castleford), L Gilmour (Bradford), N Graham (Dewsbury), I Higgins (Hunslet), S Knox (Widnes), D Laughton (Huddersfield, capt), N Lowe (Featherstone), W McDonald (St Helens), R McDonald (Dewsbury), G Mackay (Bradford), D Maiden (Hull), L Penny (Warrington), S Rhodes (Sheffield), D Shaw (Castleford), I Tonks (Castleford), A Vowles (Castleford), M Wainwright (Salford).
