Brew and Evans form centre for Scarlets

Nathan Brew and Gavin Evans will form a new centre combination for Llanelli Scarlets against Munster in the penultimate Magners League game of the season at Stradey Park on Saturday.

"I'm looking forward to playing alongside Nathan," said Evans.

"When we played the Dragons a year or so ago he played at 12 that day and he proved quite effective. He offers lots of strength and we're both looking forward to the game."

Retired Ireland international Simon Easterby was not considered for selection due to an inflamed knee while Dwayne Peel (shoulder) and Alix Popham (hand) are also carrying knocks.
