Graham had been in post for three years

George Graham has become a casualty of the Scottish Rugby Union's review after a disappointing Six Nations campaign.

The former forwards coach left his position following the decision to bring in Sean Lineen and Andy Robinson for the summer tour of Argentina.

Lineen is coach of Glasgow and Robinson is in charge of Edinburgh.

The SRU said former prop forward Graham, who had been in post for three years, was offered other coaching roles but has decided to move on.

Alan Tait had been assistant to national coach Frank Hadden along with Graham.

However, the defence coach was retained for Scotland's summer tour of Argentina.
