Rhys Tait leads Scotland U20 in Colwyn Bay on Friday
Scotland U20 Head Coach Kenny Murray has named six Glasgow Warriors academy talents in his matchday 23 to take on Wales in Colwyn Bay on Friday (ko 8.00pm).

After earning a try bonus-point in defeat to England in round one, Murray's squad will be looking to record their first win of 2022 when they travel to Colwyn Bay on Friday night.

Rhys Tait once again leads the squad from the openside flank, having topped the tackle charts with 14 against England last time out.

Max Williamson joins him in the pack, after an industrious performance that included eight carries and two offloads across the 80 minutes.

Christian Townsend will once again be pulling the strings at fly-half, after catching the eye with both ball in hand and with his kicking game in round one.

Duncan Munn retains his place at outside centre, the Boroughmuir Bears midfielder having only been denied a try by the intervention of the TMO.

Similarly, Ross McKnight continues on the wing after leading all Scotland players by making 93 metres with ball in hand during his 55 minutes on the field.

The Glasgow academy contingent is rounded out by Euan Cunningham, the Stirling County man having come off the bench for the final quarter last weekend.
