Why was Stuart initially found ineligible to play for Scotland?
His great-grandfather was from Glasgow, not his grandfather
He was born in England
He had already played for France
He was too young
Answer
The IRB requires that a player's'forefathers' have lived in a country for 70 years to be eligible to play for that country, Stuart's great-grandfather had lived in Glasgow, Scotland but his grandfather had moved to England. This meant that Stuart was not eligible to play for Scotland until he was 21 years old.
