Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko te ope o Tartan (te akomanga rangatira) e haere ana ki Twickenham i roto i te ahua i waenga i te whakarere me te pouri. I roto i ngā āhuatanga, ko te hunga tino pōuri rawa o ngā kaitōrangapū ka whiu i ngā kaiwhaiwhai mō te ngaro o te whakapono. Ahakoa ko ētahi i te puni e kī ana kāore pea he tīmatanga ki ō rātou wawata i te ahiahi o te Rāhoroi, he uaua ki te whakaaro i tētahi atu mea, engari he wikitōria ā-whare. He mea uaua ki te whakaaro ka angitu tenei taitama <unk> i roto i nga wahanga - e toro ana ki te taha i te mea kua kore nga tangata pakeke. Āe, mēnā i hiahiatia e tātou tētahi tohu o te whakapehapeha e whai wāhi nui ana ki roto i te kōrero hākinakina o tō tātou iwi, i tēnei rā i Rugger HQ. I tētahi wāhi i waenganui i te whakakotahitanga o te pūkenga me te riri e hiahiatia ana hei whakaiti i a Ingarangi, he tino pai mēnā ka whakaaturia e tētahi tangata o te hua o nāianei tētahi kaiārahi <unk> pea he kaiārahi <unk>. Me kimi e te tira a Vern Cotter tētahi pūtake whakaaweawe hou mēnā e hiahia ana rātou ki te wikitōria i Twickenham. Ko Jonny Gray pea ka 21 noa iho i te Rāhoroi, engari kua puta ia hei kaiārahi matua i roto i tēnei kapa Scottish. Ko Stuart Hogg (tuarua ki te taha maui) he ataata katoa i mua i te tukinga o Calcutta Cup o te Rahoroi i Ranana. Ko Greig Laidlaw te rangatira, o te akoranga. He kaitakaro tino tika, e noho pai ana ki te whakatau i ngā whakataunga o te hēkona, me pēhea te whakamahi i te pōro, he nui tana āwangawanga ki a ia. I roto i nga kaikawe, kei te piki haere te taumaha ki runga i a Jonny Gray, e 21 ana i te Rahoroi. He maha nga hokinga hari me nga mea katoa. He mema o te "rōpū kaiarahi" a Vern Cotter, te tangata e tukuna ana e Laidlaw tana peera i te wa e whakakapihia ana, kei te uru te taiohi ki te karanga i nga raarangi me te arahi i te kaata. Ko te tūponotanga, ko te kawenga o te kawenga e whakaiti ana i te pūngao me ngā pūkenga e tino whakaongaonga ai a Gray. He pai ake, pea, kia waiho ia ki te arotahi ki tona ake kēmu? E mōhio ana a Scotland me kaha rātau ki te whawhai ki mua mēnā e hiahia ana rātau ki te tūhono atu ki te mutunga. Ko te wahine kairau o Scotland, ko Ross Ford, e ārahi ana i tētahi whakaari tuku i te wā o ngā whakaritenga whakamutunga a Scotland mō...
Kāore a Scotland i patu i a Ingarangi i te HQ mai i te tau 1983. Ko te rangatū tuarua a Jonny Gray kei te noho hei kaiārahi nui mō Scotland. Me kaha ngā manuhiri ki mua kia kore ai rātou e tukinotia.
