James Sandford has recovered from injury to be named in the second row with James Doherty. Kieran Low, Gerard Ellis and Alex Gray make up the back row.

Jack Moates and Mike Ward form the half back combination, Foster Foran will partner Michael Worrincy in the centres and Anthony Watson, Luke Peters and Conor Gaston make up the back three.
