Rugby writers from the Scottish Sportsmail Mail bring you news, sportsmail, debate, opinion and insight from the Pro12 to the international game. One game to go and the Scottish cavalcade is off to Dublin this weekend.

Despite being raised in Italy due to his father's job, he was born in Glasgow yet never once appeared on the radar of any clubs north of the border. A youth player with Atalanta after being scouted by AC Milan, he was signed by Arsenal after moving to England and deemed good enough to pull on a Scotland shirt on five occasions. But his name and face would still draw blanks from most members of the Tartan Army. The truth is that despite a stellar career on England's south coast with Bournemouth and Portsmouth, the year-old became more conspicuous in the game once his boots were on the peg. Ben White's decision to withdraw from international football was almost two years in the making, but it originated from a pointed remark from Gareth Southgate's assistant Steve Holland. As he announced the England squad for the upcoming friendlies against Eangland and Brazil last week, Southgate revealed that White had asked not to be considered. It came after the Arsenal full-back left the England camp midway through the World Cup in Qatar due to 'personal reasons', with later reports he had a bust-up with Holland.

Gareth Southgate on Friday night insisted the controversial logo on the collar of the new England shirt is not a St George's flag, claiming it is merely a 'quirky design feature'. The national team head coach, who described himself as a huge patriot, fell short of criticising the Football Association and Nike for the multi-coloured flag, which is described as a homage to the training kit worn by the squad that won the World Cup in , when he spoke for the first time on the furore that has overshadowed tonight's friendly against Brazil. Xabi Alonso should be allowed to pursue his dream of coaching a top club, insists the goalkeeper helping him to his first league title as a boss. Alonso is wanted by the Reds to succeed Jurgen Klopp in the summer and is also courted by Bayern Munich. The Spaniard played for both Liverpool and Bayern and the temptation to return is obvious, though he could even opt to lead Leverkusen in the Champions League. Gareth Southgate says he will not speak to any club about a potential next job while he is still manager of England, despite having been linked with Manchester United this week. The FA executive who approved the controversial changes to the England flag on the home shirt to be worn for the first time against Brazil on Saturday left Wembley last year. Aryna Sabalenka earned a straight sets win over Paula Badosa her first match since the death of her former partner Konstantin Koltsov.
