Rugby: Murray and Kellock back to face Italy

SCOTLAND have made two changes for Saturday's RBS Six Nations Championship rugby clash with Italy at Murrayfield, recalling Euan Murray at prop after injury and drafting Ally Kellock into second row.

Kellock is a straight replacement for shoulder injury victim Jim Hamilton while Murray, having recovered from rib damage which saw him miss Scotland's opening defeats by Wales and France, takes over from Ally Dickinsonn who reverts to the bench at the expense of Moray Low.

For Kellock it will be a 17th cap and the first since helping record a historic second Test victory in Argentina last summer.

Coach Frank Hadden said: "We took a bold approach to selection last time and performed bravely in Paris. The approach to this game remains the same."

Scotland: Southwell (Edinbugh), Danielli (Ulster), M Evans, Morrison, T Evans (all Glasgow), Godman, Blair (captain), Jacobsen, Ford (all Edinburgh), Murray (Northampton), White (Sale), Kellock (Glasgow), Strokosch (Gloucester), Taylor (Stade Francais), Barclay (Glasgow). Subs: Hall (Glasgow), Dickinson (Gloucester), Brown (Glasgow), Gray (Northampton), Cusiter (Perpignan), Paterson, De Luca (both Edinburgh).
