November 30, 2007
Worcester Warriors will unleash the Sixways rookies against London Irish in the EDF Energy Cup clash at the Madejski Stadium on Sunday. Exciting young fly half Joe Carlisle is rewarded for his eye-catching form for Warriors in the Guinness A League this season with a start and he is joined by wing speedster Miles Benjamin. New Zealand international lock Greg Rawlinson is handed a full debut for Warriors and is joined by Will Bowley in the second row. A changed front row allows Matt Mullan to make his first start of the campaign and he will play alongside Darren Morris, who switches from loosehead to tighthead, and Chris Fortey at hooker.
James Collins is handed a position at flanker and with Netani Talei moving from No.8 there is also a starting jersey for Kai Horstmann.
"We don't want to chop and change every week, but we are aware it is a tough league programme and we will need to rotate from time to time.
