6N: Scotland v Ireland: three changes to home starting XV

Today at 08:38 AM

TOM JORDAN, Rory Sutherland and Jack Dempsey have been added to Scotland’s starting XV, with Stafford McDowall, Pierre Schoeman and Jamie Ritchie dropping to the bench ahead of Scotland’s attempt to bring to an end a 10 match losing streak against Ireland at Murrayfield on Sunday afternoon.

Sam Skinner, who was a late call-up to Scotland’s Six Nations training squad on Tuesday, comes straight into the match-day 23 as second-row cover on the bench, with head coach Gregor Townsend having gone with a six-two split on the bench.

Matt Fagerson switches to blindside flanker to accommodate Dempsey’s selection at No 8.
