Six Warriors selected for Guinness Six Nations finale

Six Warriors selected for Guinness Six Nations finale

Scotland Head Coach Gregor Townsend has named six Glasgow Warriors in the squad for Saturday’s Guinness Six Nations clash against Wales, as the men in blue look to close out the 2020 tournament on a high.

The fixture
will form the opening chapter on 2020’s ‘Super Saturday, with the match kicking
off at 2.15pm at Parc y Scarlets.

After a two-try
showing as captain in Friday night’s win over Georgia, Fraser Brown is named as
vice-captain as he retains his place at hooker.

Zander
Fagerson once again joins his club-mate in the front-row, after impressing at both
the scrum and in the loose against the Georgians.

Scott
Cummings makes it a 14th consecutive appearance in a Scotland
match-day squad, having never been omitted from a 23 since his debut against
France in August 2019.

Ali Price is
the sole Glasgow representative behind the scrum, with the scrum-half in line
for his 34th cap on Saturday afternoon.

After making
his debut against Georgia, Oli Kebble is once again named on the bench as the
loose-head prepares for his first appearance in the Guinness Six Nations.

Adam
Hastings completes the Warriors contingent, the fly-half selected amongst the
replacements by Head Coach Townsend.
