Newcastle Falcons welcome back the England quartet of Jamie Noon, Jonny Wilkinson, Toby Flood and Mathew Tait, as they make the Guinness Premiership trip to Leeds Carnegie on Friday (kick-off 7pm).
All four return from Six Nations duty having helped England defeat Ireland last weekend, with both man-of-the-match Noon and replacement Tait having crossed for second-half tries.
They join a Falcons team also seeing the return of Micky Ward at loose head prop, while there is a first Guinness Premiership start for hooker Rob Vickers.
On the bench the fit-again forward trio of Jon Golding, Brent Wilson and Andy Buist all return from recent injuries - Buist having made a successful comeback for the Falcons Development Team in Monday's 71-0 victory over Rotherham.
