By Mancunian Matters Staff

Mark Easter will captain an experienced line-up ahead of Sale Shark’s emotional farewell to Edgeley Park in the JP Morgan Asset Management Sevens.

The flanker will skipper a 12-man squad, which also includes Will Cliff, Charlie Amesbury and Will Addison, tomorrow night, with the tournament starting at 7.30pm.

Sale Sharks’ coach Pete Anglesea includes Will Bordill and Mark Jennings, who were involved in the Commonwealth Youth Games played in the Isle of Man last year, as well as Tom Cruse, James Doyle and Will Hafu, who recently started training at the club’s Carrington base.

All three players have good experience, with hooker Cruse, 23, recently moving from Stockport to Macclesfield while Doyle has joined from Leicester Tigers Academy.

Hafu, 28, a hooker who can also play centre, was previously at Coventry, Rosslyn Park and North Harbour.

The Sale Sharks JP Morgan Sevens squad in full:

Will Bordill, Tom Cruse, James Doyle, Will Hafu, Mark Easter (capt.), Mark Jennings, Jordan Davies, Will Cliff, Tom Brady, Charlie Amesbury, Johnny Leota and Will Addison.
