The International Director should choose a board of selectors from the most qualified candidates, i.e the best available from those experienced and respected players who have been there and done it, are willing to take on such a difficult and thankless role, and are not making themselves available for selection themselves.
Those selectors should then pick the players (from those eligible and available to play) who they believe will do the best job of representing Scotland. They should not be too bound by artificial constraints of ranking, games played, personalities or complex formulae. They should use their judgement to select the best team for the given circumstances.
Regardless of the result, we should all be aware that everyone concerned (selectors and players) have tried to do their best.
Err...this is exactly what happens now. Is this meant to be sarcastic?
