Jack Dempsey have been ruled out of the Waratahs clash against the Stormers on Sunday with Dean Mumm called into the starting side.

Dempsey suffered a shoulder injury against the Force last Saturday meaning Mumm will move to blindside flanker and Sam Lousi comes into the matchday 23 via the bench.

Club captain Dave Dennis will knock up consecutive centuries when he runs out for his 100th Super Rugby cap, a week after earning 100 caps for NSW.

The Waratahs will look to build off their impressive victory over the Force when they take on the Stormers at 3am AEST on Sunday, LIVE on FOX SPORTS.
