SCOTTISH Borders will complete their group matches in the European Cup when they meet Leinster in Melrose on Saturday. Borders, with two points from three games, make three changes in their side and two positional alterations from the team beaten 43-3 by Leicester last Saturday.
Scotland international Tony Stanger moves from the wing to centre for Cameron Murray, who dislocated a shoulder against Leicester, and Borders give a first cap to Malcolm Changleng on the wing. Ian Elliott, fit again after injury, is in the second row for Robbie Brown and Kevin Armstrong is on the flank with Karl Hogg moving to number eight for Nick Broughton.
Terenure College, the defending champions, have named Peter Walsh at full-back for the Leinster Senior League semi-final against Lansdowne at Lansdowne Road on Saturday. Ciaran Clarke and Girvan Dempsey are both required by Leinster, so Walsh switches to full-back with Stephen Tynan named on the wing. Lansdowne delay selection of their side pending the availability of players due to possible representative commitments.
Clontarf and St Mary's College meet in the other semi-final at Castle Avenue. Clontarf, who will be attempting to reach the final for the first time, will be without centre Nicky Barry, who joined the club at the start of the season from St Mary's, but who is required by Connacht for their European Conference match in Toulon. Karl Hoffman returns at full-back, with Gareth Aherne in the centre and Pat Ward on the flank.
St Mary's will be without their Connacht and Leinster players but their interprovincial second-row Steve Jameson has recovered from a rib injury and is named in the team.
