SCOTLAND international centre Alex Grove will make his first start of the Championship season as Worcester Warriors tackle London Welsh at Sixways tomorrow (3pm).
Grove is named in the starting line-up for a league game for the first time since returning from loan spell at Edinburgh and will team up with midfield general Dale Rasmussen as head coach Richard Hill makes three changes to the team that secured a bonus point victory over Nottingham last weekend.
Prop Adam Black returns in the front-row while England Saxons star Graham Kitchener will play in the second row alongside Craig Gillies after his outstanding international performances in recent weeks.
Tongan prop Tevita Taumoepeau is called onto the bench and is joined by Alex Crockett and Greg Rawlinson.
Warriors: Arscott; Garvey, Grove, Rasmussen, Benjamin; Goode, Arr; A Black, Lutui, Douglas, Kitchener, Gillies, Best, Sanderson, Horstmann (capt). Reps: Fortey, Taumoepeau, Rawlinson, Balding, Frost, Carlisle, Crockett.
