EDINBURGH, Aug 16 - Scotland selected 15 players with Rugby World Cup experience for next month’s tournament in France when they named their 33-man squad on Wednesday, including captain Jamie Ritchie and flyhalf Finn Russell, but there was no place for former skipper Stuart McInally. Russell is one of four players who will go to a third World Cup, along with locks Grant Gilchrist and Richie Gray and 37-year-old frontrower WP Nel. Coach Gregor Townsend did not spring any major surprises in naming his squad, the announcement coming four days after Scotland’s 30-27 loss in a warm-up test in France. The squad is made up of 19 forwards and 14 backs for the Sept. 8 to Oct. 28 tournament in France, where Scotland will face South Africa, Ireland, Tonga and Romania in Pool B.
