Academy youngster Tom Dodd will go head-to-head with Warriors teammates Will Butler and Ted Hill when Scotland face England in round four of the Under 20s Six Nations this Saturday.
The 19-year-old, who has started all three of Scotland’s Six Nations clashes this year, will line-up at number eight as his side go in search of their first win of the championship.
Head Coach Sean Lineen has named seven personnel changes to his starting line-up as Robbie Nairn, Cameron Hutchison, Ali Greig, Andrew Simmers, George Thornton, Matt Fagerson and Bruce Flockhart all come into the side.
Lineen said: “We’ve made wholesale changes as a number of players return from injury to re-enter the fray, while others merit selection after impressing off the bench against Wales.
“A poor start against Wales cost us any chance of getting a result and we know we need a more complete performance if we are to challenge England on their home patch.
“We’re yet to put together an 80-minute performance and we need to now look at pulling the positives from our previous matches and bring them to the fore in this encounter.”
