Scotland head coach Vern Cotter has given a first start to centre Huw Jones, back row Hamish Watson and front rows Zander Fagerson and debutant Allan Dell against Australia on Saturday.There are seven survivors from the side that lost by a point to Australia in the World Cup last year. Stuart Hogg, Sean Maitland, Finn Russell and Greig Laidlaw remain in the backline while Ross Ford is joined in the forward pack by the Gray brothers as Scotland look for revenge for the World Cup quarter-final defeat.?Scotland hooker Ross Ford will win his 100th cap, becoming just the third Scot to reach three figures, joining previous centurions Chris Paterson and Sean Lamont. He will be joined in a new-look front row for the Wallabies clash by debutant Allan Dell and Zander Fagerson, who makes his first international start.?Edinburgh flanker Hamish Watson and Stormers centre Huw Jones will also start a Test match for the first time as Scotland open their autumn campaign, while stand-off Finn Russell returns to Vern Cotters starting line-up after missing the summer tour of Japan with a head injury.Ford made his international debut when he replaced Gordon Bulloch against the Wallabies in Edinburgh in 2004 and has been a mainstay of the Scotland front row since his return to the jersey two years later, starting 83 of his Test appearances to date.Fords extensive experience could prove invaluable this weekend as he prepares to pack down between club-mate Dell - who starts in the loosehead berth - and once-capped, 20-year-old tighthead Fagerson.Congratulations first to Ross Ford on reaching this special milestone, said Cotter. Its fantastic for him and his family that hell achieve it in front of the home fans at BT Murrayfield, who Im sure will give him a great reception.To play 100 Test matches for your country is an incredible achievement, with his lasting dedication keeping him among the best hookers in the world for a decade. He is a consummate professional and, at 32, he has plenty left to give in a Scotland jersey.Saturdays match offers Scotland the chance to gain revenge for last years controversial World Cup quarter-final defeat. Cotter added: Its been eight months since we last played at home so the players are desperate to get out there and put in another winning performance in front of our home support.Weve prepared well over the past couple of weeks in camp, with the players working hard technically and tactically for what will undoubtedly be a tough Test match against one of the worlds top teams. We must not relent in our pursuit of success and to do the Scottish people proud.John Barclay and Ryan Wilson complete the loose forwards with the increasingly ever-present partnership of brothers Jonny and Richie Gray filing into the second row. In the backs, Greig Laidlaw and Russell will reform their pivotal partnership while Alex Dunbar - another to miss the tour through injury - joins Jones in a new-look centre partnership.The starting line-up is completed with the selection of Stuart Hogg, Tim Visser and Sean Maitland in the back three, with Tommy Seymour unavailable for personal reasons. Another notable inclusion appears among the replacements with Glasgow Warriors scrum-half Ali Price set to make his debut if called upon from the bench.Price is one of two players originally listed as training with the squad to be given the nod by Cotter for this Saturdays Test, with replacement wing Rory Hughes in line to make a first home appearance.Scotland team to face Australia:Stuart Hogg, Sean Maitland, Huw Jones, Alex Dunbar, Tim Visser, Finn Russell, Greig Laidlaw (capt);Allan Dell, Ross Ford, Zander Fagerson, Richie Gray, Jonny Gray, John Barclay, Hamish Watson, Ryan Wilson.

For the 30th time in the companys history, WWE takes over Thanksgiving week with its annual Survivor Series pay-per-view -- and this years edition offers no shortage of star power.Former WCW champion Goldberg makes his first appearance in a WWE ring since 2004, as he faces off with a familiar foe in?Brock Lesnar?in the main event at Torontos Air Canada Centre.In a nod to its original format, the WWE will also roll out three traditional Survivor Series elimination tag team matches, and this time all three will pit members of the Raw and SmackDown Live brands against each other. The most important matches of the six-bout card, however, at least in the long term, just might come in a pair of inter-promotional title bouts. Both the intercontinental and cruiserweight championships are on the line, and the result in either match could alter the landscape of the current brand extension.Lets take a closer look at whats at stake in each matchup heading into Sunday.Brock Lesnar vs. GoldbergThere have been plenty of highs and lows in the buildup to this grudge match, from Goldbergs emotional return on the Oct. 17 episode of Raw in Denver to the botched (and abandoned) promo from Lesnar and Paul Heyman one week later in Minneapolis.But through it all, WWE has stuck to its guns in building this feud without having the two combatants make physical contact with each other -- and thats gone a long way towards retaining the element of must-see curiosity as to exactly what this match will look like.Goldberg is not only 12 years removed from his last match, hes one month shy of turning 50. Fans caught a glimpse of the kind of shape hes is in during Mondays go-home episode of Raw, when he tore off his shirt to manhandle a group of security guards. Two weeks earlier, he stumbled while brawling with Rusev before lifting up the Bulgarian Brute and delivering his patented jackhammer move.Its difficult to know, however, exactly what to expect outside of the assumption that it will be physical. Goldberg said as much during multiple interviews on ESPN platforms, going as far as admitting he fully expects to be in the hospital after the match.Goldberg feasted on squash matches during his initial rise in WCW and was never considered a great worker. In fact, he was booed out of the building during his last WWE match -- a WrestleMania XX victory over Lesnar -- due to the crowds knowledge that both were set to leave the company. But hes consistently trained in various disciplines of martial arts since his 2004 departure, and hell likely implement those stiff and realistic strikes into his move set come Sunday.As far as what happens in the match, it likely depends upon Goldbergs true intentions moving forward. He told ESPN.com in October that this is a one-time appearance, and yet he showed interest in the idea of Sundays match evolving into future opportunities.Its logical to expect that Lesnar, still a top draw for WWE in his part-time role at 39, would go over. The recent history of ex-WCW stars making nostalgic returns only to job out (see Sting at WrestleMania 31) supports this theory. But if Goldberg has plans to extend his comeback to WrestleMania 33 next April, an upset victory isnt entirely out of the question.It all depends, of course, on how well Goldberg looks and feels on Sunday. For a performer so reliant upon intimidation and physicality, its fair to question whether he can channel enough of the Goldberg of old without looking too much like an old Goldberg.No one ever said playing fantasy booker with a 49-year-old this far removed from his most recent match was an exact science.Mens 5-on-5 elimination match: Raw vs. SmackDown Live(Kevin Owens,?Chris Jericho,?Roman Reigns,?Braun Strowman?and?Seth Rollins?for Raw;?AJ Styles,?Dean Ambrose,?Randy Orton,?Bray Wyatt?and?Shane McMahon?for SmackDown)WWE has done a decent job of building anticipation for this classic Survivor Series style match, despite the fact that nothing tangible is at stake outside of promotional bragging rights (and stern warnings not to fail from Raw commissioner?Stephanie McMahon?and SmackDown legend The Undertaker).The timing of The Undertakers return on Tuesday was an interesting wrinkle in this one. Not only did he cryptically announce his return to active duty beyond just an annual WrestleMania appearance, one has to assume the seeds for his next feud will be planted during this match.Chris Jericho certainly teased as much with a tweet he sent out in the early morning hours after SmackDown Live. But outside of?The Undertakers?presence, there are plenty of storylines to keep a?close eye on within this match.Is SmackDown commissioner Shane McMahons involvement in this match more about drawing eyeballs, or is it a strategic opportunity to escalate his sibling rivalry with sister Stephanie (and by proxy, his brother-in-law?Triple H)? How might SmackDown mascot?James Ellsworths?presence affect the ongoing feud between AJ Styles and Dean Ambrose? And?what happens?with the brewing Shield reunion between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, especially in a match against Ambrose?Whichever brand ends up winning the match is likely inconsequential. The real intrigue surrounds which superstar will get the biggest push as the sole surrvivor.ddddddddddddConsidering the time put into his recent push as a solo act, Braun Strowman, who will likely face off at some point against former teammate Bray Wyatt, could prove to be a wild card in this regard.Womens 5-on-5 elimination match: Raw vs. SmackDown Live(Charlotte Flair,?Bayley,?Nia Jax,?Alicia Fox?and?Sasha Banks?for Raw;?Nikki Bella,?Becky Lynch,?Alexa Bliss,?Carmella?and?Naomi?for SmackDown)This match offers an interesting contrast between the depth of SmackDowns team and the top-heavy star power on Raw. Outside of that dynamic, there hasnt been much of a storyline in the buildup (not to mention much at stake in the match).Tuesdays go-home episode of SmackDown featured a run-in from the Raw team, as all five members emerged from the crowd to take down Nikki Bella before the cavalry arrived to even things out. But the sequence demanded a sizable suspension of disbelief, as we saw uber-babyface Bayley take part in a 5-on-1 stomping, which took something away from the overall moment.One thing was certain from the melee: Even though Becky Lynch is the SmackDown champion, Bella remains the brands biggest draw, and seeing the rekindling of her rivalry with Raw champion Charlotte was a fun wrinkle. Bella, who has been stuck playing the role of helpless babyface in an underwhelming feud with Carmella of late, may not need a belt to justify her star status, but the rub that comes with being the sole survivor surely wouldnt hurt her cause in this case.10-on-10 tag team elimination match: Raw vs. SmackDown Live(The New Day,?Sheamus?&?Cesaro,?Luke Gallows?&?Karl Anderson,?Enzo Amore?&?Big Cass?and?The Shining Stars?for Raw;?Heath Slater?&?Rhyno,?The Hype Bros,?American Alpha,?The Usos?and?Breezango?for SmackDown)The ring apron will be as crowded as ever for this one, which should provide a nostalgic visual to the early days of Survivor Series. From there, it will be interesting to see how bitter enemies coexist on the same team, with plenty of potential for spinoffs into new feuds.The ongoing feud between Gallows & Anderson and Enzo & Big Cass has been hot, and its conceivable that their hatred for each other could lead to Raws demise. The New Days loss on the go-home Raw proved some more vulnerability as well, but if were looking at it with a traditional booking approach, theyll persevere at Survivor Series.Its hard to say exactly what kind of positives can come from this match, but the team that could undoubtedly benefit most from the push of being sole survivors would be American Alpha, which saw what should have been a hot feud with The Usos curiously put on the back burner of late.WWE Intercontinental Championship: The Miz (c) vs. Sami ZaynIn terms of WWEs immediate future within its current brand extension, this is the most important match on Sundays card. The stipulation in place is that if?Sami Zayn?wins, the title comes with?him back to the Raw brand.The Mizs?surprise victory over?Dolph Ziggler?on Tuesday, earning him his sixth career intercontinental title reign, added a late wrinkle to this one and shouldnt rob too much from its potential to?steal the show on Sunday inside the ring. Whats most intriguing in this case, however, is what happens after the match.Theres been enough teasing in recent weeks from SmackDown general manager?Daniel Bryan?that a trade of Miz to the Raw brand was possible. Considering Raws inconsistent run of late in the?court of public opinion from fans, the addition of a great talker like The Miz could certainly help matters.Should he lose the belt to the very deserving Zayn, whos floundered since a seemingly career-altering victory over Owens in July, it would put the intercontinental title back on Raw. Without the lingering value of holding the title, it wouldnt be inconceivable at that point to see The Miz follow him to Monday nights. Just the same, there has been equal chatter of late from Bryan on Talking Smack about how unhappy both Zayn and Cesaro are on Raw, and that he would welcome seeing at least one of them head to the land of opportunity that is SmackDown; even in a loss, and maybe especially so, Zayn could use a fresh start.However it ends up playing out, a minor shakeup of the rosters just four months into the brand split could go a long way in keeping things fresh as things closer to the Royal Rumble and the start of WrestleMania season.WWE cruiserweight championship: The Brian Kendrick (c) vs. KalistoThis match also features a potentially landscape-changing stipulation, wherein if Kalisto wins, both the title and the entire cruiserweight division would follow him back to the SmackDown brand.In a way, WWE may have already tipped its hand as to the result of this match, thanks to the recent announcement that 205 Live, a new cruiserweight-exclusive show debuting Nov. 29, will be filmed in the same arena each week as SmackDown Live on Tuesday nights.Despite the top-shelf heel work in recent months from?Brian Kendrick, who captured the title from inaugural champion?TJ Perkins?last month at Hell in a Cell,?Kalisto?appears made?for?the?cruiserweight division and could do well as its face.
