Newly demoted Ben Cairns and Sean Lamont get a chance to prove that the selector’s don’t know what they are talking about when they take to the field vs Ireland A tomorrow night at the RDS, Dublin, (k.o 7.30pm). Some new faces in the pack which means Ally Hogg gets a chance to “rest” this weekend. Young Glasgow hope Ruairidh Jackson is given a chance to lead the team’s attack from 10 after only two professional starts and it’s a clear sign he is being groomed for, well, something. Possibly being shuffled around the backline until he is near retirement age?

SCOTLAND A (v Ireland A): S Jones (Newcastle); S Lamont (Northampton), B Cairns (Edinburgh) capt, R Dewey (Ulster), J Thompson (Edinburgh); R Jackson, M McMillan; E Kalman, F Thomson (all Glasgow), D Young (Gloucester), C Hamilton (Edinburgh), D Turner (Glasgow), S Newlands (Edinburgh), J Beattie (Glasgow), A MacDonald (Edinburgh). Subs: S Lawson (Gloucester), S Corsar (Rotherham), S MacLeod (Edinburgh), S Swindall (Glasgow), G Laidlaw (Edinburgh), G Ross (Saracens).

Not much chance of finding this one on telly anywhere as it might be fun, but if there is I’ll keep you posted. It could well be on the radio though.

UPDATE: Don’t forget to make changes to your Fantasy Teams ahead of the weekend!
