Worcester Cavaliers hit the road for the second successive Monday as they travel across the Midlands to face Northampton Wanderers in the Aviva A League at Franklin’s Gardens tonight (kick-off 7.00pm).
Worcester opened the new Northern Conference season with a bonus point win against Leeds Carnegie and now face a Northampton side that also impressed as they crushed Leicester Tigers in the opening round.
James Whybrow and Sam Miller win call-ups to provide the firepower out wide while Mike Penn is named at full back. Danny Gray and Ollie Frost will again combine at half back.
Prop George Porter will get more valuable game time in the front row while Adam Balding and Jake Abbott feature in the back row.
