Number 8, Xavier Rush will captain the team for this Fridays Celtic League clash against the Edinburgh Gunners.
Cardiff Blues Director of Coaching Dai Young said We have made several changes to the team for this Fridays match against the Edinburgh Gunners due to the unacceptable performance against the Leeds Tykes last Sunday. We are looking for a reaction from the players and if I was totally honest if we had more options we would have made more changes
