Glasgow Warriors squad named for pre-season game “The Famous Grouse”

Seven players will play their first pre-season game in Glasgow colours in the warm-up match.

International duo Rory Sutherland and Adam Hastings, both summer signings for Franco Smith's team, will feature in the pre-season friendly, while fellow Scots Richie Gray, Jack Dempsey, Kyle Rowe, Jamie Dobie and captain Stafford McDowall all return after missing last weekend's 31-0 defeat to Zebre.

Patrick Schickerling will experience Scotstoun as a Warrior for the first time since joining the club from Exeter Chiefs.

Head coach Franco Smith told glasgowwarriors.org: “We are excited to return home tomorrow night and play in front of our fans as we continue to prepare for the start of the new season.

“Tomorrow there will be another opportunity for some of our young talents to experience rugby at the highest level. And it will be a chance for us to gradually integrate our established professionals back into the team.

“We are looking forward to the challenge that Connacht will bring and we are excited to face the Warrior Nation tomorrow night.”
