Gray and Seymour to reach international half-century

• 7 Mar 2019

Jonny Gray and Tommy Seymour will both earn their 50th Scotland caps against Wales at BT Murrayfield this Saturday.

The pair are two of seven Glasgow Warriors selected by Gregor Townsend to face a Welsh team with aspirations of a Grand Slam.

Ali Price starts at scrum-half having come off the bench in Scotland’s previous three games in this year’s Guinness 6 Nations.

Pete Horne also comes into the starting XV and partners Warriors teammate Nick Grigg in midfield.

Fraser Brown and Adam Hastings are named among the replacements, the fly-half is the only Glasgow player involved to have played for the Warriors in their 10-42 victory over Zebre in Parma last Saturday.
