The never before seen calendar will go on sale from 6.30pm, followed by a silent auction for signed original shots of the boys.

The players themselves will be on hand to sign the calendars and might even get behind the counter to sell a few!

SCOTLAND'S rugby hunks prove they're really hot dates - stripping off for a cheeky charity calendar.

Hot dates ... 2011 calendarThe Edinburgh Rugby aces posed in their pants in front of the some of the capital's most famous landmarks.

And they had to brave crowds of tourists on the city's Royal Mile during the saucy shoot.

Scotland hero Nick De Luca persuaded fellow internationalists to join the shoot, including Ross Ford, Chris Paterson, Alex Grove, Ross Rennie, Alan MacDonald, Phil Godman and Mike Blair.

Nick, 26, said: "I think everyone involved had been putting in some extra training at the gym.

"The boys were a little shy so we snapped a lot of it very early in the morning or in the last bit of daylight so there weren't too many people around.

"But the first shoot was on the Royal Mile during the festival - it was mobbed. We had a few women who stopped and started taking their own photos."

The big-hearted stars hope the calendar will raise £10,000 for cancer charity Maggie's. And some of the players will dress as Chippendales for the launch party next week. Nick said: "Cancer touches everyone's life so we wanted to do something to help."

It was very enjoyable and I second Loop's congrats to Nick and all that were all involved in organising the calendar. I will certainly not forget being greeted at the door by Lee and Dave with a glass of bubbly!

The Calendar sales raised about £14,000, which Nick has presented (or is going to present - can't quite remember, as it was a good night on Tuesday!) to Maggies.

Fantastic amount!
