“We are looking forward to going to Bridgend and getting what will be a valuable run out against quality opposition on Saturday.
“The line-up is a reflection of the stage we are at in pre-season, in terms of training performance, combinations we want to see together and individuals we want a closer look at.
“It’s a step up from where we’ve been over the last couple of weeks and will give us the opportunity to measure where we are as a team, knowing that our focus has been on certain areas of our game and that there are other aspects that will become the focus as Edinburgh at the Liberty Stadium on the 31st draws nearer.
“There’s some exciting young talent having a run-out, bolstered by a number of experiences players. It’s a good combination that should excite supporters, who understand that it’s the first test ahead of bigger challenges over the coming weeks and months.”
