Kiss makes selection gamble for Wallabies-Argentina rematch
Ben Donaldson will wear the Wallabies' number 10 for the first time in two years while Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii and Len Ikitau have been returned to the centres.
In preparation for their upcoming rematch against Argentina, the Wallabies have made significant changes to their starting lineup under coach Les Kiss. Ben Donaldson will make his first start at fly-half in two years, showcasing rare form. Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii returns to the centers, partnering with Len Ikitau in a new formation for the Test match in Mendoza.
After a recent six-game losing streak, the team is aiming for their first five consecutive wins since 2021. Despite some injury concerns, Carter Gordon has been replaced by Donaldson at number 10. Ryan Lonergan remains as scrum-half, while Tom Wright will play his 50th Test match as fullback. The back row will feature Filipo Daugunu and Harry Wilson, replacing Harry Potter and Hunter Paisami.
This is the first time that the star pair Len Ikitau and Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii will start together under the new coach.
