Stewart switch

SCOTLAND coach Ian McGeechan continues with his front-row experimentation by naming Mattie Stewart at loose-head for tomorrow’s match with Rugby Canada. Craig Smith returns to tight-head.

In the only other changes to the side which lost to the Barbarians, hooker Steve Scott starts in place of Gordon Bulloch while Jason White moves to blindside and Simon Taylor to openside for the injured Martin Leslie.
