Scotland back-row international Johnnie Beattie returns to the Glasgow Warriors team for the Magners League visit of Ulster on Saturday.
The 21-year-old number eight has not featured since suffering ankle ligament damage during his second full cap appearance for the national team in the Bank of Scotland Corporate Autumn Test win over the Pacific Islanders in November.

Fergus Thomson is restored to hooker in place of Scott Lawson, while Colin Gregor returns to full-back after a try-scoring substitute appearance in the win at Border Reivers last weekend.

Rory Lamont switches to the wing while Hefin O’Hare moves to centre. Scott Barrow will start on the bench.
