London Scottish have named their team to face Rotherham Titans at the Athletic Ground tomorrow afternoon. 

Adam Kwasnicki returns to the front-row alongside James Gibbons and Matt Shields for the match against the sixth-placed Titans.

James Cannon joins Neale Patrick in the second-row, the Wasps man will make his first start for the Scots tomorrow afternoon.

Mark Bright and Freddie Clarke maintain their places in the back-row, with Chris Walker replacing Chevvy Pennycook at blindside flanker. 

George Horne and Oli Grove continue their half-back partnership, with Scottish pair Craig Jackson and Robbie Fergusson occupying the centres. 

Drew Locke returns to the starting line-up for the first time since early November and starts on the left wing. Saracens winger Nathan Earle starts on the right wing, with Peter Lydon at full-back. 

On the bench David Cherry, Kurt Schonert and Jimmy Litchfield offer a front-row alternative, with Will Carrick Smith and Rory Bartle covering the second-row and back-row. 

Matt Heeks will look to make an impact at scrum-half, and Aaron Morris, who scored against Bristol last week covers the back-line. 

Centre Robbie Fergusson, who has been an ever-present in the starting line-up since joining in November is expecting a tough battle against the Titans. 

“It will be good to get back on the home patch and we all know that we need a win. We can take a lot of confidence from the last few weeks and hope to get a good result tomorrow afternoon.”
