Border Reivers' captain Chris Cusiter is named today in the starting line-up for tomorrow's all-Scottish derby against Glasgow Warriors at Hughenden (kick-off 7:30pm).
Cusiter returns after he sustained a shoulder injury whilst playing against The Ospreys at Liberty Stadium in Swansea three weeks ago.

Craig Hamilton is also brought back into the starting line-up to face his old club. He replaces Stuart Grimes who is out due to an ankle injury.

Looking ahead to the clash, Reivers' head coach Steve Bates said: "The local derby games are usually very 'highly charged' affairs and we are all really looking forward to tomorrow night."
