Ross Ford was one of only four Scots to make the Lions squad

Scotland's Ross Ford has been named as one of the replacements in the British and Irish Lions squad for the third Test against South Africa on Saturday.

Euan Murray and Nathan Hines were the only Scots to make Ian McGeechan's original 37-man squad, with Ford and Mike Blair called in following injury.

"All I've ever wanted to do is to win for the Lions," Ford blogged on Edinburgh's website.

"If I do that on Saturday then that would be the highlight of my career."

McGeechan has made eight changes to the side that suffered defeat last weekend.

Saturday's match is the third on the tour in which no Scots have been named in the starting line-up.
