Waratahs Super rugby Head Coach, Daryl Gibson has named an unchanged starting team to play the Brumbies at Bankwest Stadium.

With two games left in the regular season, nothing short of two wins will propel the NSW Waratahs into finals contention – starting with the Brumbies on Saturday evening.

The two teams will battle it out for the Dan Vickerman Cup – honouring the memory of the former-Wallaby – in what will no doubt be a hotly contested fixture.

After incurring a head knock against the Rebels, Ned Hanigan has failed his concussion protocol and will be replaced by Tom Staniforth in the matchday squad, while Tolu Latu could has been named on the bench pending approval of his return from suspension.

New recruit Tuatalatasi Tasi has also been named on the bench, after signing an injury cover contract to replace Karmichael Hunt.
