SEVEN Stirling County players, including two capped backs, Kenny Logan and Ian Jardine, return to Glasgow's team for the inter-district championship match against the South at Philiphaugh, Selkirk, on Sunday (kick-off 2pm).
Logan, Jardine, and five County colleagues - Angus Turner, Gordon Mackay, Malcolm Norval, Brian Robertson, and John Gibson - were unavailable for the district's match against Connacht in Galway last Saturday, when Glasgow won 22-16, because they were playing for Stirling in the Premier League match against Heriot's.
Robertson, at tight head, is back in the Glasgow fold after he had been a stand-by replacement for North and Midlands in the match against Western Samoa last month.
Glasgow's selectors have named nine forwards for the Selkirk match as they have yet to decide on the composition of their pack. Team:
G Breckenridge (GHK); A Turner, I C Jardine (both Stirling County), A Garry (Watsonians), K M Logan (Stirling County); C MacGregor (Glasgow Academicals), C Little (GHK); forwards from J Gibson (Stirling County), G Bulloch (West of Scotland), B Robertson, M Norval (both Stirling County), G Perrett (West of Scotland), F Wallace (Boroughmuir), captain, D McVey (Ayr), G Mackay (Stirling County), I Sinclair (Watsonians). Replacements -T Mathewson (Glasgow Academicals), C Sangster (Stirling County), J Weston (Watsonians), G Doran (Glasgow Academicals), C Docherty (GHK).
q KEN Baillie, Edinburgh Academicals' full back, will have his first under-21 district game of the season for Glasgow when he returns for the final championship match against Edinburgh at Murrayfield on Wednesday (kick-off 6pm). Craig Sangster, Stirling County's full back, also returns, though playing at stand-off alongside Jamie Weston, Watsonians' scrum half. Team:
K Baillie (Edinburgh Academicals); G Caldwell (GHK), A Bulloch (West of Scotland), D Ablett (Glasow Academicals), J Craig (West of Scotland); C Sangster (Stirling County), J Weston (Watsonians); D Porte (Glasgow Academicals), C Docherty (GHK), D Jamieson (West of Scotland), S Begley (Glasgow Academicals), G Macfarlane (West of Scotland), N Adams (GHK), C Houston (Glasgow Southern), R Wylie (Stirling County).
