In June 2012, the Scotland rugby union team made a tour of Australia, Fiji and Samoa, playing one test match against each.
The tour began with Scotland's second consecutive win over Australia, meaning they retained the Hopetoun Cup. (They had beaten Australia 9–8 at Murrayfield in 2009.[1]) Scotland then travelled to Fiji, becoming the first "Tier 1" nation to play a test in a Pacific Island nation since Italy visited Fiji in 2006.[2] Scotland recorded away victories over both Fiji and Samoa.
Scotland were also scheduled to play the New South Wales Waratahs on 10 June, but this match was called off on 11 May as the Waratahs were unable to field a team "due to injuries and the requirements of the Wallabies squad."[3]
Initial 28-man squad, named on 16 May.[4] Ages and caps correct as of 5 June 2012.
The following players were called up during the tour:
