		The annual clash against the crack Select outfit sees Biggar-reared Lawson dedicating his appearance for Scotland to his former club’s Colts coach, Rod Craise, who died three years ago of cancer, aged 48.
		It was one of Rod’s ambitions before he died to see a Biggar player come through the ranks to wear Scottish colours and when I recently visited the club from the Glasgow pro Team I now represent there was an unmistakable buzz that he would have been proud of my selection.
		If that happens then ex-scrum half Craise will no doubt look down with satisfaction as a new award-winning chapter is added to the history of a club he not only helped found through the Edinburgh District Leagues, but helped give national title status.
