Mark McCall today named his starting line up to play Edinburgh on Friday night at Ravenhill, KO 7.30pm.
McCall has named current Irish International Paddy Wallace at number 10 to allow Wallace to get some game time at fly half ahead of the Irish tour to Argentina in a fortnight's time, David Humphreys is named on the bench.
Bryn Cunningham is ruled out with a back injury so Tommy Bowe moves to full back which is the position he played throughout school.
Paul McKenzie will start on the right wing and Darren Cave is named on the replacements bench.
Ireland A's newest recruit Ryan Caldwell also misses the game through a foot injury allowing Tim Barker steps up to partner Justin Harrison in the second row and Belfast Harlequins and Ulster A lock Lewis Stevenson is named on the bench for the first time.
Lewis who is leaving Ulster to play at Exeter next season will be hoping to win his first cap for Ulster.
