JACOB Taylor is looking forward to facing his former teammates when Oxford University host Sydney University at Iffley Road tonight (7.15pm).

Ex-Australia Sevens captain Taylor has increasingly impressed at fly half and full back for the Dark Blues this season as he targets a Varsity Match place.

Taylor said “I am really looking forward to facing some old teammates, but I am not going to allow the familiarity to distract me.”

The Dark Blues have named a 28-man squad for their last home match before taking on Cambridge at Twickenham on Thursday, December 12 where they will seek a fourth straight Varsity Match victory.

Sydney University, whose former players include Nick Farr-Jones, Phil Waugh and Israel Folau, are on a seven-match UK tour to celebrate their 150th anniversary.
