SCOTLAND assistant Pieter de Villiers admits the second string’s win over the Maori All Blacks has thrown up some selection headaches ahead of the Test against Fiji.

The tourists are still set to bring their big guns back for Saturday’s clash in Suva.

That means returns for the likes of Glasgow Warriors trio Kyle Steyn, Rory Darge and Matt Fagerson along with Edinburgh’s Grant Gilchrist, Jamie Ritchie and Darcy Graham.

But some fringe players could force their way into the matchday 23 after impressing in the 29-26 win in the tour opener in New Zealand.
