Scotland head coach Frank Hadden has named 15 new caps in his joint training squad ahead of the summer tour of South Africa.

Border Reivers head coach Steve Bates has selected the same backline that played against Connacht a fortnight ago for this Friday’s Celtic League clash against Leinster.

Coach Steve Bates has wielded the axe in making changes to The Borders side that beat The Ospreys last week for the match-up with Connacht on Saturday.

Connacht will look to get back to winning ways and stop a four match losing sequence at The Borders tonight.
