Jaguares force to ring the changes again
The Japanese newcomers, the Sunwolves, host the Argentinian newcomers, the Jaguares at the Prince Chichibu Memorial Stadium, in Tokyo, on Saturday.
The Sunwolves are winless after eight rounds, sitting at the bottom of the Africa One conference, while the Jaguares have one win from seven starts and are second to last in Africa Two.
The Jaguares have made five changes to the team that will take to the field on Saturday – as they draw to a close a gout-match tour of New Zealand and Japan.
The forward pack will see Felipe Arregui at prop in place of Santiago García Botta.
Juan Cruz Guillemaín will miss the match due to an injury suffered just after the team announcement. Guillemain will be replaced by Guido Petti, while Matías Orlando will start from the bench.
Rodrigo Báez is replaced at flank by Pablo Matera.
Lucas González Amorosino replaces Emiliano Boffelli on the left wing, with the latter dropping down to the replacement bench.
On the other wing Ramiro Moyano Matias replaces Matías Orlando.
Jaguares – revised: 15 Joaquín Tuculet, 14 Ramiro Moyano, 13 Jerónimo de la Fuente, 12 Santiago González Iglesias, 11 Lucas González Amorosino, 10 Juan Martín Hernández, 9 Gonzalo Bertranou, 8 Facundo Isa, 7 Juan Manuel Leguizamón, 6 Pablo Matera, 5 Matías Alemanno, 4 Guido Petti, 3 Nahuel Tetaz Chaparro, 2 Agustín Creevy (captain), 1 Felipe Arregui.
