Four Scarlets are named in the Wales match-day 23 for Saturday’s Men’s Guinness Six Nations clash with Scotland at Murrayfield (16:45; BBC & S4C).
Interim coach Matt Sherratt has kept faith with the same starting line-up that performed so admirably against Grand Slam-chasing Ireland in Cardiff, including the all-Scarlet back three of Blair Murray, Tom Rogers (pictured) and Ellis Mee.
There are two changes on the bench with the fit-again Dewi Lake providing cover at hooker and Keiron Assiratti replacing Scarlets tight-head prop Henry Thomas. Fellow Scarlet Joe Roberts is named among the replacements.
Sherratt said: “This week we’ve challenged ourselves to keep improving. We want to keep the same intent and bravery as we showed last time out, but making sure that we are building on our game. We’re excited for the challenge of playing Scotland in Edinburgh and can’t wait to get out there on Saturday.”
