Fly-half James Brown and centre Mark Tucker are both handed starts as Warriors boss Mike Ruddock makes three changes for the visit of European champions London Wasps to Sixways Stadium tomorrow (5pm).

Brown is handed the number ten shirt with Shane Drahm moving to full back. Tucker comes into the team at inside centre for Gary Trueman.

Director of rugby Ruddock also makes a change in the front row where prop Darren Morris is handed a first start of the season with Tony Windo moving to the replacements bench.

Dominic Feaunati is named amongst the replacements after recovering from the elbow injury that ruled him out of the season opener with Bath Rugby last weekend.

"Winning your home games is vital and we want to create that intimidating fortress where the opposition are not looking forward to visiting and know they are going to have a difficult time," said Ruddock.

"There is a positive and upbeat environment at the club, now is the time to knuckle down and build a strong reputation at home.

"The fans were fantastic at Bath and we were disappointed not to perform for them on the opening day. We are now doubly determined to put on a show for them and really give them something to shout about."

Warriors: Drahm, Delport, Rasmussen, Tucker, Garvey, Brown, M Powell; Morris, Fortey, Taumoepeau, Murphy, Gillies, Wood, Sanderson (capt), Horstmann. Reps: Windo, Gotting, Bowley, Quinnell, R Powell, Feaunati, Pennell.
