|February 06, 2026
RUGBY UNION: British and Irish Lion Blair Kinghorn has been dropped for Scotland's Six Nations opener against Italy tomorrow with Tom Jordan taking his place.
-
Scotland will open their Six Nations campaign with a return to Rome for the first time since their disappointing defeat there in March 2024 and will be looking for a strong start to build on their fourth-placed finish last year.
Jordan has earned a starting berth at fullback, with Kinghorn (right) dropped from the matchday squad by head coach Gregor Townsend.
