ACADEMY youngster Perry Humphreys will make his Worcester Warriors debut against Rotherham Titans at Clifton Lane tomorrow (3pm).

The winger, who has impressed at full-back during three outings for Worcester Cavaliers this season, has been given the nod in a youthful backline that includes Andy Symons, Max Stelling, Sam Smith and Ben Howard.

Humphreys' first-team call-up is another illustration that Warriors director of rugby Dean Ryan is continuing to focus on developing his young players by providing them with opportunities in the Greene King IPA Championship.

Ryan makes seven changes to the starting 15 that thrashed Nottingham 55-16 last weekend, with Ignacio Mieres returning at fly-half and Charlie Mulchrone set to face his former club at number nine.

Val Rapava Ruskin earns a starting berth at loose-head after coming off the bench and scoring against Nottingham and 22-year-old academy star Mike Daniels will get his first Warriors start at tight-head.

In the second-row, Dan Sanderson partners Darren O'Shea, while Sam Betty returns to the squad in a back-row that includes Matt Cox and captain Gerrit-Jan van Velze.

New signing Mat Gilbert could make his Warriors debut along with prop Joe Rees, with both named amongst the replacements.

Jonny Arr is also named on the bench and will make his 150th appearance for the club should he come on against the Titans.

Warriors: Howard; Smith, Stelling, Symons, Humphreys; Mieres, Mulchrone; Ruskin, George, Daniels, Sanderson, O'Shea, Cox, Betty, van Velze. Replacements: Annett, Rees, Bower, Gilbert, Arr, Eden, Fatiaki.
