Lambie left his rivals trailing to claim the win in the Ludlow 10K Race in a course-record time of 34:42.

But, as he did against Munster in October, Lambie could also play full-back.

Lambie himself could not have written a better script and hitman Doolan admitted it was the perfect tribute.

A minute's applause will be held before tomorrow's crunch clash against Lambie's former club Hamilton that will allow a walk down memory lane for Archibald who recalls the mayhem of being a player under his charge.

Taqele Naiyaravoro put the Barbarians ahead for a third time just before the break, but Sergeal Peterson went in four minutes into the second period and Lambie's conversion put the Springboks ahead for the first time.

South Africa led 6-3 after an underwhelming opening quarter with Lambie kicking a couple of penalties and Nicolas Sanchez responding for Argentina with a three-point effort of his own.

But a burrowing try from Burger and 13 points from the boot of flyhalf Pat Lambie made it 12 matches in a row since England last beat the Springboks.

Fly-half Lambie did the necessary with the conversion to hand the visitors the perfect start.

SOUTH AFRICA: Tries - penalty try, Engelbrecht, Serfontein; Conversions - Steyn (2), Lambie; Penalties - Steyn (2), Lambie SCOTLAND: Tries - Scott, Dunbar; Conversions - Laidlaw (2); Penalty - Laidlaw

Lambie had been working on the alternative to what he calls the 'dysfunctional' QWERTY keyboard over 25 years ago.

Lambie will earn his 13th cap while Kruger and Basson are returning to Tests for the first time since last year's Tri-Nations.

Gary Lambie sustained fatal head injuries when he jumped from Marsden Grotto, on the coast of Tyneside's South Shields, early on October 31 last year.

The goals came from David Lambie (3), Rob Toolan (2), Luke Teeling, Luke Clifford and Jappe Deker, while Brian Walmsley proved a defensive rock.
