Anyone know who was in the winning Quins side? Did Nairn turn out for them?

Melrose in 2006 or 7 was the first time I saw VIsser play, when he was still with Newcastle. He was unbelievable.

Nairn was in Hong Kong.. Harlequins had a very impressive squad, including a James Lang who played for Scotland U.18`s.
If someone still looks like a classy player after two or three rounds at Melrose then they usually are..
Don`t know how "Scottish" * he is, however.


* in these divided political times that was meant as a query re. qualification, nothing else.

I wondered about Lang. He's looked pretty good when I've seen him turn out for Quins. A nice option at 10/12. I often think that if you've made the effort to effort to turn out for Scotland at age group & you're an exile, you must have some kind of strong feeling about them.
