Andy Robinson's first year in charge of Scotland brought five wins - including the two recent successes in Argentina - and five losses but where will his side go from here? The Scotsman's Iain Morrison asks that very question.
"Robinson has done a great job with the national squad over the past 12 months but he has not changed the fundamental nature of this team. Instead he has done running repairs, tightened the nuts and bolts rather than replaced the entire engine, made them cussed and difficult to beat. He has brought in Al Kellock who has given the side an aerial presence they previously lacked and he has been helped by Dan Parks' Lazarus-like renaissance which has been instrumental in Scotland's recent success.
"...Robinson muttered about opportunities for younger playmakers to shine but in all honesty if the Aussie [Dan Parks] retired tomorrow Scotland would be scuppered. Phil Godman came to Argentina and sat on the subs bench for 160 minutes."
