Simon's first 6Nations saw him run out against England and Scotland. His form for Scotland junior sides had been exemplary. We all know what this is about. Fresh faced young lad. This has tour virgin written all over it. Actually, it is a great success for Scotland and highlights the fact that Scott Quinnell is the only other true number eight in the side. Only four caps for Scotland, but one of them was against the Aussies, 75 minutes of which was played with a broken hand. Expect Taylor to set the pitches alight. He destroyed Pat lam when playing for the Edingburgh Reivers against Northampton.
