Sept 3 : Australia have again rung the changes but significantly strengthened their side for the second test against Argentina on Saturday as captain Harry Wilson was restored to the starting line-up.
• Wallabies coach Les Kiss had named an entirely new forward pack for last weekend’s first test in San Salvador de Jujuy, where they pulled off a narrow 27-21 win, but for Saturday’s game changed only the front row and one of the loose forwards.
• Experienced props Angus Bell and Taniela Tupou return with Billy Pollard as hooker.
• Rob Valetini moves from No. 8 to the flank to allow for the return of captain Wilson.
