JIM Jenner is back in the Worcester Rugby Club line-up as they square up to Moseley on Sunday.
The powerful number eight replaces the injured Mark Gabey in the Warriors side for the National One clash at Bournbrook (3pm). Gabey has a rib injury and will be out for a couple of weeks.
Craig Quinnell had been expected to come in for Gabey, but Worcester's coaches have gone for Jenner for the must-win league clash.
"We've gone for Jim's mobility," said Andy Keast. "We think that will cause Moseley problems. Craig was a lock replacement on Saturday and is again a second row re-placement on Sunday."
Director of rugby John Brain will make a final check on the fitness of Tony Windo, Craig Gillies and John O'Reilly. Windo and Gillies are expected to be fit with O'Reilly the more doubtful of the trio.
Hat-trick hero of the 74-8 drubbing of Moseley back in October, Tom Richardson, will come into the squad if O'Reilly fails his fitness test.
Craig Chalmers is again ruled out with a hamstring problem, while Richard Nias is ruled out through injury. Hooker James Parkes is also still injured so Stewart Pearl continues as a replacement, while Tim Walsh is preferred to James Brown at fly-half.
Keast admitted that Walsh's performance ag-ainst Plymouth was "a little rusty" but is happy to keep the faith.
Worcester: Roke; Ezulike, Officer, Trueman, Garrard, Walsh, Swanepoel; Windo, Hall, Lyman, Zaltzman, Gillies, Ev-ans, Pfister, Jenner. Reps: O'Reilly, Brown, Ogilvie-Bull, Pearl, Olver, N Mason, Quinnell.
