Former Flying Fijian reps Sisa Koyamaibole and Marika Vakacegu have been named in the Sale starting line-up to face Gloucester in the Guinness Premiership.

Coach Kingsley Jones has recalled Vakacegu after England rep Matthew Tait failed to recover from injury.

Koyamaibole will start in his favourite number 8 position after impressive outings in his past games although he has not been considered in the Fiji team for the Europe Tour.

Meanwhile, Gloucester has dropped Akapusi Qera from the starting line-up.

Qera will start from the bench after his side was defeated at home by the Wasps last week. The Gloucester versus Sale match will kickoff later today.
