Angus glad to hold his own in back row battle

ANGUS Scott-Young relishes a battle and there are few fiercer than the contest for places in Northampton's back row with Courtney Lawes and Lewis Ludlam back from the World Cup.

Angus glad to hold his own in back row battle

The Saints had the same back row for the first three Premiership matches this season, Scott-Young and Tom Pearson the flankers with Sam Graham No.8.

Graham gave way to Ludlam against Bath last weekend and for today's clash against Exeter at Franklin's Gardens, Lawes is back on the blindside, Graham is at No.8 and Scott-Young switches to the openside with Pearson on the bench. And Juarno Augustus is expected to return from injury in a few weeks.

"There is a lot of talent in the back row here," said the 26-year old ScottYoung, a recruit last year from Queensland Reds. "There are internationals left, right and centre which can be intimidating when it comes to selection but we are friends and we push each other. If you are selected, it means you are doing something and it will be interesting what happens later in the season."
