Waratahs Coach Daryl Gibson has made one change to the starting line-up for this weekend’s Super Rugby match against the Jaguares in Buenos Aires.
Alex Newsome replaces Andrew Kellaway on the right wing and on the bench, hooker Tolu Latu comes in for Hugh Roach, Norths halfback Nick Duffy replaces the injured Mitchell short and Taqele Naiyaravoro is set for his first game of the competition.
“We have selected a team that is competitive in all areas, particularly in the forwards where we are continuing to improve. This weekend’s game is about continuing the momentum that we have built up over the last two games and finishing a challenging couple of weeks on a positive note,” Gibson said.
