Warriors unchanged for cup clash
October 31, 2002
Glasgow Warriors have named an unchanged XV for the opening match of the inaugural Bank of Scotland Pro-Rugby Cup at Edinburgh. The Warriors have kept faith with the same side which defeated Connacht at Hughenden last week. Wing Jon Steel, who has been named in the Scotland A squad for the game against Romania A next week, has recovered from an ankle injury to earn a place on the bench. Andrew Wilson also returns as a replacement after a bout of sinusitis kept him out of the Connacht game. But Warriors top scorer Tommy Hayes is still sidelined with a knee injury.

Substitutes: Elsewhere, Edinburgh have made three changes from the team that accounted for Neath last week. Simon Webster has recovered from injury and displaces Conan Sharman on the right wing; Mike Blair starts instead of Graeme Burns at scrum-half; and Carlo Di Ciacca is preferred to Dougie Hall at hooker. Chirs Paterson failed a late fitness test following the dead leg he sustained at the Scotland training session last Monday.
