JOSH STRAUSS will make it to Paris this weekend to play in Scotland’s Six Nations crunch clash against France if selected.

The No 8 became a doubt for the match after his South African passport went missing, with it being too late for the 32-year-old to get a replacement. The Sun newspaper reported this morning that David Mundell, the Secretary of State for Scotland, had asked the Foreign Office for help getting the player to the match.

However, a Scottish Rugby spokesman has since confirmed that the situation has been resolved. The passport has not been found but a resolution with the authorities has been reached.
