Rising stars Joe Carlisle and James Collins will start for Worcester, with Shane Drahm and Warriors skipper Pat Sanderson dropping to the bench. Worcester number eight Drew Hickey has been named as captain for the day. Bristol head coach Richard Hill told BBC Radio Bristol that he was happy to allow his experienced players a final appearance at the Memorial Stadium. "I think it's a fitting tribute to those who have given a huge amount to the club," he said. "I think it's only right that the supporters have an opportunity to send these players away and thank them for what they've done, and likewise the players to go and out perform well to thank the supporters." Worcester director of rugby Mike Ruddock told BBC Hereford and Worcester that 20-year-old fly-half Carlisle had earned his chance. "He's got a touch of confidence about him, but I wouldn't call it arrogance, and I like that," said Ruddock. "He seems to be quite comfortable with what he's about as a player and that augurs well for his display."
