Sadly, former Scottish internationalist and Hall of Fame legend, Scott Hastings lost his battle with cancer this morning at the age of 61.

A real hero of Scottish rugby, along with his brother, who won the Grand Slam with Scotland in 1990 before venturing into broadcasting after with a very noticeable voice.

RIP

Awful news. An excellent player and commentator.

He seemed like a very decent human being.

Terrible news! He was a brilliant speaker and he made the most that he could have from his rugby career. It’s easy to forget he was a lion!! He’s going to be a great loss.
