11 Jun 2026

Head Coach Fergus Pringle has made seven changes for tomorrow's friendly against Wales U20 at Meggetland (kick off 3pm) in the final warm-up match ahead of the 2026 Junior World Championship.

Glasgow Warriors prospect Joe Roberts will captain the side.

In an unchanged front row, Ollie Blyth-Lafferty starts in at tighthead prop. He is joined in the front row by hooker Joe Roberts, who captains the side, and loosehead prop Will Pearce.

Alfie Blackett and Dan Halkon continue in the second row, while number 8 Harry Jackaman is joined by incoming blindside flanker Christian Lindsay and openside Jack Marshall in the back row.

Adam McKenzie comes in at scrum-half and makes up the half-backs with stand-off Jake Dalziel, who was nominated for the 2026 U20 Six Nations Player of the Championship.

And all-new centre partnership sees vice-captain Ross Wolfenden on the inside and Campbell Waugh on the outside. Daniel Kelly is on the right wing with Ewan Caven coming in on the left, and Rory McHaffie completes the starting team at full-back.

Jamie McAughtrie, Jamie Stewart, Jackson Rennie, Finlay Mather, Finn Ronnie, Sam Byrd, Jack Utterson and Oliver Finlayson-Russell are all primed to come in the forwards, while Matthew Fick, Calum Jessop, Harry Clark, Harry Soboil, Harry Provan and Asa Stewart-Harris could come on in the backs.
