He does. Hodge already played him there. But I think I would still prefer Brown who also has experience there !

I don't know. That would be good if, like Glasgow, injured players were known at each team announcement...

Team is out :

Sutherland - Cochrane - McCallum (Bryce - Fenton - Shields)
McKenzie - Carmichael (Mata)
Bradbury - Du Preez - Ritchie (Crosbie)
Kennedy - Van Der Walt (Fowles)
Van Der Merwe - Dean - Johnston - Hoyland (Rasolea)
Graham (Kinghorn)

Some interesting calls.
Marfo, McInally, Berghan, Toolis, Gilchrist, Hidalgo-Clyne, Burleigh, Fife are all rested for the Glasgow game.
I'm looking forward to Kennedy's first start this year, as well as Graham at FB, and the midfield combination.
Bryce at LH is interesting too. It would explain why Millar-Mills and Shields have been recruited.

Don't think Marfo's being rested, I think he's still injured from last week. It's good that we're rotating when we can, and the team still looks easily strong enough to get a big win at home, especially with the pace and danger in the backline.

Marfo was supposed to start last week but didn’t not sure what injury/illness was but may not be fit rather than rested. Sheilds came on at LH when Sutherland got binned.

Strong squad again, interesting all 3 of our number 8s are in the match day squad.

Backline looks good, Kennedy looked well up for it last week after a year out, hope he has a good game.

Back 3 very exciting again and midfield nicely balanced.

This suggests both Bresler and Hunter-Hill must be injured as back five in forwards is covered by two flankers and Carmichael has played largely at 6?
Glen Bryce injured as well?
Anyone know the prognosis for Dell?
Cockerill clearly doesn't seem to like Harries -though with everyone bar Brown fit a lot of competition on the wing.

McCallum is the loosehead cover. Bryce is on the bench because there are no other fit props!

Yes,presumably MacCallum is the LH cover if Sutherland was injured.

Is Tovey injured? I remember him getting clattered in the Cheetahs match.

Does anyone know what the injury list is? They used to announce that.

Car park over the bridge is open for Season Ticket holders and yes, the whole place is just roaming access. No reserved seating or ST section from what I saw, and there was no pitchside standing at the L Irish game (presumably as they just did not have tome to get the barriers out etc.) Guess they will probably have it tomorrow given the decision was taken early and there is suitable time to act.
Bill Mata. The second coming?

I don't think there is pitch side standing this week either.

There are the party nights at Murrayfield at present so bar is in North Stand suite, may be reason no pitchside standing as well not sure.

AlanLewis, I was looking forward to be able to shuffle about to keep warm, sitting still(ish) does not go well with cold weather in a near empty stadium.
