EDINBURGH: Scotland captain Stuart Hogg is more than willing to give up the flyhalf berth for Friday’s Six Nations finale in France despite leading his side from the pivot position to a 52-10 romp over Italy at Murrayfield on Saturday .
"I’ve no doubt he’ll be back in the 10 jersey next week," said Hogg after the rout of bottom-placed Italy. Townsend took the opportunity to experiment with Hogg at halfback while Russell was forced to sit out because of a concussion suffered in the game against Ireland."For Hoggy to start in a new position and to have to organise the attacking side of it, and to have to defend in the frontline a lot more than he’s been doing lately, was really good," said the coach.Hogg admitted, however, that it was not always easy.
