Graham set for 50th Scotland cap
Darcy Graham is set to step out in a Scotland jersey for the 50th time this weekend, against Argentina, in the third match of the Quilter Nations Series.
Joint-top try scorer for Scotland Men, Graham made his debut back in 2018 against Wales and has fond memories of facing Argentina after running in three tries in a 52-29 win in 2022 during their last encounter.
Graham is one of six Edinburgh players named in the 23 to face The Pumas. There is consistency in the front row with an all-Edinburgh selection where Pierre Schoeman, Ewan Ashman and D’arcy Rae link up.
Grant Gilchrist once again starts in the second-row as Duhan van der Merwe comes back into the fold among the replacements following the opening weekend win over USA, which marked his own 50th Scotland cap, when he scored two tries.
