Scotland boosted by Aussies
30 May 2008 | Alan White
Manly's Michael Robertson, Wests Tigers' Keith Galloway and Canterbury Bulldogs' Chris Armit will line up for the Scots.
Winger Robertson, 25, who finished joint top try-scorer in 27 matches in last season's NRL, qualifies to play for Scotland through a Scottish grandfather, who moved to Australia later in life.
Robertson's ancestry papers have been approved by England's Rugby Football League, and he could prove to be an important asset for Scotland's World Cup bid.
Prop forwards Galloway, 22, and Armit, 24, also possess valuable NRL experience.
Scotland face France in Canberra on October 26th, before they play Fiji at the Central Coast in New South Wales on November 5th.
