Ten Warriors in Scotland squad for France test
Ten Glasgow Warriors have been selected in the Scotland squad to face France in this Saturday’s Guinness 6 Nations clash in Paris.
Pete Horne starts at fly-half, following his man-of-the-match performance for the Warriors against Cardiff last weekend.
Nick Grigg also scored a try at the Arms Park and starts for his country alongside his Glasgow midfield partner Sam Johnson.
Tommy Seymour retains his place on the wing and Jonny Gray starts in the engine room.
It is an entire Warriors front row on the bench. Zander Fagerson’s successful return from injury last Saturday sees him brought straight back into the international fold. He joins Fraser Brown and Alex Allan among the replacements.
Ali Price and Adam Hastings will also look to influence the game off the bench.
