List of Scotland 'B' international players is a list of people who have played for Scotland 'B'.
Scotland 'B' international matches took place between 1971 and 1992. The name of the Anglo-Scots district side is used here as it was commonly used at that time period; they changed their name in 1992 to be known as the Scottish Exiles side to better reflect the Scottish diaspora.
Players in BOLD font have been capped by Scotland.
Players in Italic font have capped either by the Scotland international 7s side; or by the Scotland international XV 'A' side.
A position in parentheses indicates that the player debuted as a substitute.
Amateur Era. (1871-1996) Capped at District level:
| South of Scotland | Glasgow District | North and Midlands | Edinburgh District | Anglo-Scots | Other Districts | No District caps |
Notes
editThis list follows the SRU 2007-2008 Scottish Rugby Record which has the last list detailing the Scotland 'B' international players.
The 2007-2008 list ignores the 25 February 1976 Scotland 'B' match against the Royal Navy, both in debuts and in the player 'B' cap totals, and that omission is followed in this list.
All Scotland 'B' players that featured in that match were either already capped at 'B' level or subsequently capped.
There are players listed elsewhere like Eddie Pollock and James Scobbie that are sometimes recorded as 'B' internationals, but these players are not recorded on the 2007-2008 list, and are thus also omitted.[3][4]
