Rovers travelled to Torquay with a squad of 19 players for this afternoon's friendly fixture against the Blue Square Premiership outfit.

Missing from the travelling party, though, was summer signing Jeff Hughes, who is suffering from a slight groin strain suffered in training this week. He has been rested as a precaution ahead of next week's tour to Sweden.

The starting lineup this afternoon will be as follows:

Steve Phillips, Aaron Lescott, Craig Hinton, Danny Coles, Joe Jacobson, Chris Lines, Stuart Campbell, Craig Disley, Sean Rigg, Rick.ie Lambert, Darryl Duffy
