FRANCO SMITH is hoping Sione Vailanu's injury nightmare is finally behind him.

Warriors' comeback-rower

The tenacious Tongan is named on the bench for Glasgow's URC clash with Munster tonight.

It's a much-changed lineup with Warriors missing 15 regulars retained by Scotland ahead of next weekend's Six Nations opener.

Five internationals do return but the majority of the team is made up of kids or players such as Vailanu on the comeback trail.

It’s the back-rower's first game this term and just his eighth in two years due to a recurring knee injury.

But Smith is confident Vailanu - who can play at No.8 or flanker - is fully recovered this time.
