Keith Robertson never possessed the acceleration which usually marks out the great wings. Yet what he lacked in out-and-out pace he more than made up for in guile and sheer footballing ability. An accomplished Sevens player, the willowy Melrose wing – he was a shade under 11 stone – was also a prolific try scorer at every level except international. During his Scotland career which spanned eleven years, Robertson only managed to score eight tries."[2]
He played for Scotland forty four times between 1978 and 1989.[2] He played at both wing and centre, the latter twenty times out of his forty four caps.[2]
Keith Robertson was a major part of Scotland's Grand Slam in 1984.[2]
