Edinburgh Rugby have made three personnel changes to the squad for today’s clash with Glasgow Warriors at Firhill.

Lee Jones (wing), Mike Blair (scrum-half) and Grant Gilchrist (lock) have all been promoted from the bench in place of Tom Brown, Chris Leck and Esteban Lozada, who failed fitness tests at yesterday afternoon’s team run.

Their places in the squad have been taken by James King, Alex Black and David Denton, with Denton picked to start the match at blind-side flank and Netani Talei moving to the bench.
