Scotland rugby uses a standard 15-a-player formation with forwards (props, hooker, locks, flankers, number 8) providing scrummaging power and ball carriers, while backs (scrum-half, fly-half, centers, wingers, fullback) handle attacking play and defense. Their tactics emphasize tight forward play, lineout precision, controlled kicking, and quick backline movements, with recent strategies focusing on attacking rugby through faster ball distribution and set-piece dominance.
