Edinburgh trio Rob Dewey, Allister Hogg and Craig Smith are all on the comeback trail after suffering serious injuries which have seen them miss most of the November tests as well as a large chunk of regional rugby.

Dewey underwent knee surgery following his try-scoring debut in Scotland's opening autumn international against Romania in November.

He is now participating in all non-contact and speed training after progressing from the rehab running group.

Hogg is working on interval training as part of the rehab running group after having a knee brace removed after he lasted less than forty minutes in his comeback game for Edinburgh.

He ruptured the medial ligament in his right knee in the Magners League game against Cardiff Blues in November.

There is also good news for Smith, who has resumed running this week and will shortly begin activities in the gym following neck surgery last month.
