Justin Marshall will make his Leeds debut in Saturday’s pre-season friendly against Edinburgh at Headingley.

Scrum-half Marshall, who joined Leeds after helping the All Blacks inflict a 3-0 Test series defeat on Sir Clive Woodward’s British & Irish Lions earlier this summer, is joined in the Tykes line-up by fellow new arrivals Gordon Bulloch and Roland De Marigny.

There is also a return for full-back Iain Balshaw, three months after he withdrew from Lions tour duties due to a thigh injury suffered during Leeds’ Powergen Cup final victory over Bath.

"This will be a big test for us, and it comes at just the right time in our pre-season build-up," said Tykes rugby director Phil Davies.
