The Tipperary native made his first appearance for Scotland in the Six Nations.
BEN HEALY WILL make his first start for Scotland this weekend, as he slots in at out-half for their opening World Cup warm-up game against Italy on Saturday.
Healy, who made his first appearance for Scotland during their final Six Nations match against Italy earlier this year, will link up with Ali Price at scrum-half.23-year-old Healy qualifies for Scotland through his grandmother and was the subject of heavy interest from the Scottish Rugby Union for several years.
Earlier this year, Munster revealed that the Tipperary native would be leaving the Irish province at the end of the season to join Edinburgh. Rory Darge will captain Scotland against Italy this weekend while Glasgow Warriors centre Stafford McDowall and Leicester Tigers second row Cameron Henderson are set to make their Scotland debuts.
The backs see Kyle Steyn and Darcy Graham line up on the wings, joined by Chris Harris and debutant McDowell in the centre.
