Squad to play Perpignan

This just in from HQ:

"Rory Lamont makes his long awaited comeback this evening for Sale Sharks in the game against Perpignan in the Challenge Vaquerin. Rory was injured playing for Scotland in the Calcutta Cup game against England when he collided with Iain Balshaw.

Director of Rugby Philippe Saint Andre said, “Rory has worked with Steve Walsh and the Conditioning Team on his rehab. He also had a minor knee operation to clean up the joint and he is really looking forward to the new season.”

Regarding the team this evening, Philippe said, “I have only selected from those players who have done the full close season preparation with us and it’s a great opportunity for them to impress and stake a claim for a place in the team.”

Included in the team are new signings David Doherty, Nick McLeod and Ross Davies

Team Lamont, Doherty, McAlister, Thomas, Royle, McLeod, Cliff, Roberts, M Jones, Halsall, Schofield (Captain), Cox, J Jones, Hills, Fearns

Replacements: Turner, O’Donnell, Davies, Briggs, Lawson, Cockbain, Shaw, Leck, Kennedy, Kuadey"
