Leeds Carnegie have three changes to their side for the crucial trip to Exeter this Saturday from the side that defeated Nottingham 34-19 last Sunday.
In the forwards, Fosi Pala'amo replaces Tommy McGee at tight head prop whilst the backline features Scott Mathie in the starting line up for the first time. The scrum half joined Leeds Carnegie this summer from Natal Sharks and gets the nod this week ahead of Joe Bedford.
Finally, Richard Welding, who set up Tom Biggs for the fourth try in stoppage time last week, gains a starting spot on the wing with Scott Armstrong amongst the replacements.
Rob Rawlinson returns from injury to take his place on the bench alongside youngsters Tom Denton and Andy Boyde.
