"We know that South Africa are a very strong side - but anybody who isn't excited about playing against them shouldn't be out there."Also back in the side are the wing pairing of Craig Joiner and Derek Stark, the full-back Rowen Shepherd, and Craig Chalmers - the latter attempting to fill the boots of the injured Alan Tait in the centre.SCOTLAND (v South Africa, Murrayfield, Saturday): R Shepherd (Melrose and Caledonia); C Joiner (Leicester), A Stanger (Hawick and Scottish Borders), C Chalmers (Melrose and Scottish Borders), D Stark (Glasgow Hawks and Glasgow); G Townsend (Northampton), A Nicol (Bath); D Hilton (Bath), G McKelvey (Watsonians and Edinburgh), M Stewart (Northampton), S Campbell (Dundee HSFP and Caledonia), S Murray (Bedford), R Wainwright (Dundee HSFP and Caledonia, capt), E Peters (Bath), I Smith (Moseley). The British Isles flanker's inspirational presence is a major boost to a side still reeling from the demoralising defeat by Australia. His restoration to the captaincy in place of the Bath scrum-half Andy Nicol was perhaps the most significant change to emerge when Scotland's coach, Richie Dixon, announced the 15 players charged with reclaiming battered pride against the Springboks. "We are concentrating on putting the heart back into the performance," Wainwright, who replaces Adam Roxburgh, said. Rob Wainwright will be back from injury when the world champions, South Africa, come to Murrayfield on Saturday.

As well as Ince, Derby's Deon Burton and Chelsea's Frode Grodas represent the Premiership though both will start on the bench.EUROPE: Kopke (Germany & Marseilles); Pfeifenberger (Austria & Werder Bremen), Colding (Denmark & Brondby), Costacurta (Italy & Milan), Hierro (Spain & Real Madrid), Lemoine (Belgium & Espanyol), Balakov (Bulgaria & VfB Stuttgart), Ince (England & Liverpool), Zidane (France & Juventus), Boksic (Croatia & Lazio), Kluivert (Netherlands & Milan).

He is such a late replacement after Celtic refused Darren Jackson permission he is billed as Ian Durie - by a blockhead, one presumes.There will be some outstanding talents on display, including Ronaldo, Patrick Kluivert, Zinedine Zidane, Alen Boksic, Gabriel Batistuta and Nwanko Kanu. However, withdrawals through injury or by clubs have robbed the game of Premiership players Peter Schmeichel and Stig Inge Bjornebye (who are due to be playing at Anfield less than 48 hours later), Dan Petrescu, Gary McAllister, Faustino Asprilla and Mark Fish as well as the likes of Paul Gascoigne, Paulo Maldini, Dejan Savicevic and Jose Luis Chilavert.Paul Ince, suspended for Anfield, has replaced Gascoigne while Gordon Durie steps in for McAllister. Pele is currently attempting to pass anti-corruption legislation which would emasculate the CBF.The draw will be preceded by an exhibition match featuring one player from each of the 32 qualifiers. Like the draw, this is beginning to appear a good idea in principle but a bad one in practice. The match is Europe (15 qualifiers plus, bizarrely, Iran) v Rest of the World (the other 16). Beckenbauer and Perreira are managers and they originally chose two impressive squads. Unofficially it is because of Pele's long-running dispute with Joao Havelange, Fifa's veteran autocratic president.

This originally stems from a dispute involving television deals in Brazilian football but has developed into a battle for control of the Brazilian game - Havelange's son-in-law, Ricardo Teixeira, is the head of the CBF, the Brazilian FA, Pele is Brazil's sports minister. Fishing the balls out of bowls will be Franz Beckenbauer and Carlos Alberto Perreira, the last two World Cup winning managers, Liberia's World Player of the Year George Weah, former French internationals Jean-Pierre Papin, Marius Tresor and Raymond Kopa, and US Olympic women's football gold medallist Julie Foudy. Pele is in Marseilles, working for Mastercard but, as in Las Vegas four years ago, he is not involved in the draw.Officially this is because he is present "in other capacities", though this applies to others involved notably Beckenbauer and Perreira. It's a wonder local author Peter Mayle was not invited as well.One illustrious name is missing, last week's runaway winner in the Hall of Fame voting for the world's greatest-ever player. The latest forecast is for a dry but cold day with winds dropping from 35mph to less than 25mph as the afternoon wears on.Wherever the draw is held the stage is going to be crowded.

Overseeing the draw will be Platini, Sepp Blatter, general secretary of Fifa, the sport's world governing body, and two French television presenters. In that case we would have to go inside." The spectators would still be able to see the draw, but on two big screens at the ground. But, if it is windy, the structure of the tent [covering the stage] may not cope. This is the second largest and the most southernmost, so we hoped there may be sunshine. Strong wind, and Le Mistral is in full cry, will be and not just because it will push temperatures for the three-hour extravaganza towards zero."We imagined this draw as a big party," said Platini "We wanted it to be for everybody, not 1,500 VIPs But there is no covered stadium in France. To the organisers' relief it was dry yesterday but still cold and windy.

Suddenly the idea of staging an open-air draw is looking over-ambitious.Rain is not regarded as a major problem as the draw is under cover (though most of the 38,000 spectators are not). Negotiations broke down late on Tuesday, no further talks are planned, and the the controversial centre-right Mayor, Jean-Claude Gaudin, has appealed for lorry drivers and private bus-drivers to come forward and help ferry the 25,000 youngsters who have been invited to the draw to the Stade Velodrome.Last-minute negotiations may yet settle that dispute but even Michel Platini, co-president of the organising committee and France's greatest- ever player, cannot influence the weather. There are only two problems, the transport workers and the weather.Two local transport unions, with an opportunism the French coach Aime Jaquet would welcome in his own strikers, have called a one-day stoppage over pay and conditions which could paralyse an already congested city. The eyes of the world will be on Marseilles as the French city hosts tonight's World Cup draw. It is most ambitious draw in the tournament's history - possibly, reflects Glenn Moore in the ancient port, too ambitious.
