Lawson leaves Gunners

By Jonathan McConnell
Scrum half Rory Lawson will be leaving the Edinburgh Gunners at the end of this season for guinness Premiership side Gloucester.
Lawson, who is currently in Australia with the Scotland 7s team preparing for the Commonwealth Games on 16 and 17 March, will be under the experienced eye of former Scotland captain and scrum half Bryan Redpath, a coach at the west country club.

Lawson, who represented Scotland U21 seven times in 2001 and 2002, has also represented Scotland U19 and Scottish Schools.  This season he has acted as Edinburgh captain on two occasions.

Edinburgh assistant coach Phil Smith said: “We’re very sorry to see Rory go but competition for the scrum half position at Edinburgh is tough so we’re aware that by moving he may gain some more invaluable experience, especially working with Bryan Redpath.”
