Ahhh so sad to see Hoggy retiring after the World Cup
injuries have really taken a toll.
He's younger than me, and came into a Scotland team that was on it's knees. Along with Cotter and a few other individuals, he dragged us forward at times. A supreme player on his day and for Scotland, and no exaggeration for me one of our greatest ever players. Adore him and I'm genuinely gutted. The World Cup will be his last dance and thanks to a draw being made two years ago, we will find it tough for him to go out on a high but hopefully we can do it.
Thanks for everything Hoggy, loved watching you play and enjoy retirement when it comes.
