Home debut for Lomu

Jonah Lomu will make his home debut in Cardiff Blues’ European Cup clash against Calvisano on Saturday.

New Zealand superstar Lomu lines up in a familiar left-wing role, having played for 60 minutes during Blues’ 25-10 Pool Two away victory over the Italians last weekend.

The Blues expect a capacity crowd to witness Lomu’s Arms Park bow, with Cardiff also on course for a European Cup quarter-final place.

Blues coach David Young has made three changes, handing Wales and British & Irish Lions prop Gethin Jenkins a first start of the campaign after recovering from shoulder surgery, while wing Craig Morgan and centre Jamie Robinson also feature.
