Mike Blair has been named Scotland's player of the season at the 2008 Scottish Rugby Awards.
The Calcutta Cup winning captain and scrum-half collected his prize at an awards ceremony at Murrayfield Stadium on Friday night.

The award was part of a double for Blair who also captured the Celtic League player of the season prize.

Meanwhile, his Edinburgh and Scotland team-mate, hooker Ross Ford, won the award for try of the season with his glorious score against Leicester Tigers in the European Cup at Murrayfield.

Blair said: “It’s been a fantastic year for me.

“I always say that it’s an honour to play for Scotland but to captain Scotland in this season’s 6 Nations was a dream come true.

“To win both the Magners and Scotland player of the season in the same year just caps off an excellent season for me.”
