Great Scot! Mac's back for Saints challenge

MURRAY McCallum returns for Newcastle Falcons when they host Gallagher Premiership champions Northampton Saints today.

The Scottish prop comes in as one of two changes from the side which was narrowly beaten in controversial circumstances at Exeter Chiefs last time out.

Sam Stuart starts at scrum-half as a hamstring strain sidelines Joe Davis, while there could be a Premiership debut for 20-year-old lock-forward Finn Baker.

Max Pepper returns to the bench after missing the last two months through injury, with Sammy Arnold also back in the match-day 23 having recovered from a head knock.

Director of rugby Steve Diamond said: "Northampton have got the England half-back pairing and like to play at a high tempo, so we'll have to be on it right from the start and put time in the tackle.
