In robinson's tenure there has been a lot of changes and debutants. Although I do feel that he has always leaned towards players playing abroad especially england. I don't see cautiousness however often I think he doesn't notice that players have outstayed their welcome ie. Southwell, parks, morrison, danielli, walker and to an extent blair. Hopefully post rwc this will change and we will see an influx of quality Scottish talent for example Gilchrist, Denton, Harley, mcinally, fusaro, laidlaw, leanord, weir, jones, Hogg, Scott, king etc. And a bit of Dutch talent As well; add to that Jacobsen, ford, Murray, Gray, brown, barclay, Beattie (if he's at his best), cusiter, the lamonts, de Luca, ansbro, and Evans I think that there is a squad that is balanced and largely going to be around in 2015. If the "cautious" coach that is Robinson sees this then surely there is hope yet despite the shocking standard of the second leg of the derby

I'm still not expecting m assume changes for the 6Ns, other than maybe at fullback and fly half, but I think he will look to bring the youngsters into the international set up on te summer tour to the SH Braveheart
