Summer tour 'almost no-win' for Scotland - Wright

Scotland's summer tour is something of a banana skin, according to former national team prop Peter Wright.

Gregor Townsend's side face Canada, USA, Chile and Uruguay, and will be expected to win all four Test matches.

"This is almost a no-win tour for them because the four teams they are playing against are way down the world ranking and they should beat them," Wright told Sportsound..

"Uruguay and Chile will see Scotland as a real scalp. It's a tough tour. It will be really exciting for some of the younger players though.

"For the likes of Sione Tuipulotu, it's been a really long, hard season with very little rest. Still, you always want to play for your country and it will be an exciting summer."
