(Reuters) - Scotland captain Stuart Hogg plans on having fewer post-match beers and has lost five kilograms in a bid to improve his physical and mental health after feeling "drained" following the British & Irish Lions series defeat in South Africa.

Hogg will not feature in Saturday’s opening test of the autumn series against Tonga as it falls outside of the international window and he has club commitments with Exeter, but will be a key figure in the clashes against Australia, South Africa and Japan that follow.
