Chris Paterson was today recalled to the Scotland side for Saturday's RBS 6 Nations clash with Ireland - but head coach Frank Hadden delayed finalising his selection at second row.
Paterson, Scotland's record points scorer and most capped player, was controversially left out of the starting line-up for the opening three games of the championship.
He comes in for Edinburgh team-mate Hugo Southwell at full-back, one of two definite changes from the team which beat Italy just over a week ago.
The other sees Alasdair Dickinson replace fellow prop Allan Jacobsen, who underwent shoulder surgery last week and will be out for up to four months.
Scotland XV to play Ireland in the RBS 6 Nations at Murrayfield, Saturday, 5.00pm:
Chris Paterson, Simon Danielli, Max Evans, Graeme Morrison, Thom Evans, Phil Godman, Mike Blair capt, Alasdair Dickinson, Ross Ford Euan Murray. Locks from: Jim Hamilton, Nathan Hines, Alastair Kellock, Jason White; Alasdair Strokosch, Simon Taylor, John Barclay
Replacements: Dougie Hall, Moray Low, Scott Gray, Chris Cusiter, Hugo Southwell.
