Waratahs, Brumbies deliver selection shocks ahead of Super Rugby opener

Posted on February 28, 2023 by FASHIONISLANDBLOG

Both the NSW Waratahs and ACT Brumbies have shaken up their line-ups as they find the best balance ahead of Friday's Super Rugby Pacific opener.Darren Coleman has thrown teenage sensation Max Jorgensen into the spotlight, selected on the wing.The 18-year-old was preferred over the returning Nemani Nadolo, who will come off the bench, replacing breakout star Dylan Pietsch after he failed to recover from a quad complaint.“Max has been getting a lot of press at the moment – he’s a talented young player, and we understand he’s going to have his ups and downs but we’re with him for the ride,” Coleman said.“I think you’ll see as his confidence grows, the talent that he has will shine through.”Returning backrower Lachlan Swinton has beaten out Wallaby Langi Gleeson and Will Harris at blindside flanker, joining Michael Hooper and Charlie Gamble."The whole team and staff are really excited for Lachie, it’s an amazing recovery and show of willpower from him, especially considering what he’s been through," Coleman said.“There’s no better way for him to relaunch his career than in one of the biggest Waratahs games for a long time in our home coming at Allianz Stadium.” The hosts received a boost with Izaia Perese cleared to play after overcoming his own quad complaint.As for the ACT Brumbies, they are set to finish the game with a bang after Stephen Larkham named a host of stars on the bench, headlined by Wallabies captain James Slipper.Blake Schoupp starts in his place after impressing during pre-season, joined by Connal McInerney and Allan Alaalatoa in the front-row.Nic White and Noah Lolesio will also start from the reserves, with White to make his 100th appearance when called upon.The plan to start the Wallabies pair off the bench had been in place for a couple of weeks according to Larkham, who instead opted to start Australia A captain Ryan Lonergan and new recruit Jack Debreczeni.Sevens superstar Corey Toole will make his Brumbies debut on the wing, joined in the backline by Auckland centre Tamati Tua.WARATAHS (1-15): Angus Bell, Dave Porecki, Archer Holz, Jed Holloway, Taleni Seu, Lachlan Swinton, Michael Hooper, Charlie Gamble, Jake Gordon (c), Tane Edmed, Max Jorgensen, Lalakai Foketi, Izaia Perese, Mark Nawaqanitawase, Ben DonaldsonRESERVES: Mahe Vailanu, Tom Lambert, Te Tera Faulkner, Hugh Sinclair, Langi Gleeson, Will Harris, Harrison Goddard, Nemani NadoloBRUMBIES (1-15): Blake Schoupp, Connal McInerney, Allan Alaalatoa (c), Nick Frost, Cadeyrn Neville, Rob Valetini, Rory Scott, Pete Samu, Ryan Lonergan, Jack Debreczeni, Corey Toole, Tamati Tua, Len Ikitau, Andy Muirhead, Tom WrightRESERVES: Lachlan Lonergan, James Slipper, Rhys Van Nek, Darcy Swain, Luke Reimer, Nic White, Noah Lolesio, Ollie SapsfordClick Here: nsw blues jersey
