Glasgow Warriors have named their team for Sunday’s Heineken Cup Pool 6 clash with Newport Gwent Dragons at Rodney Parade (ko 3.00pm).
Alastair Kellock captains the side which boasts seven of the club’s eleven players selected for RBS 6 Nations duty with Scotland.
Relishing another game in the midst of the Rodney Parade atmosphere, head coach Sean Lineen, said: “We always look forward to going down to Newport. It’s a great atmosphere and the crowd are fantastic, you really want to play in that kind of environment.
“The players enjoy it, especially if you can silence the crowd which is pretty difficult – that’s their 16th man down there.
“The Dragons will be looking to get a win before we play them in the Magners League in a month’s time so both teams have reasons to win this game.”
