The Waratahs U16s have made eight changes for their Round 2 clash against the Western Force at Eric Tweedale tomorrow (3:05PM kick-off).
Harrison Bromiley, Lukas Pendleton, Antonio Azzi, Mitchell Spanton, Vailala Fekitoa and Andrew Larkin come into the starting side in the pack, as do Sia'a Taveuveu and Kaiden Grace in the backs following the 55-22 win over the Brumbies at Viking Park in Round 1 on Saturday.
Head of Academy and Pathways Andrew Cleverley was looking forward to his side 'building on their success' from the weekend.
"The squad is certainly looking to build on its success Saturday, with a strong performance against the Force," Cleverley said.
"The short turnaround for us only gives us one training session but we are aiming to ensure we are more accurate at the breakdown and stay connected in defence for a more complete performance."
Chris Suaalii moves from prop to number eight to captain the side, while Riley Carr is vice captain from scrum-half.
Lachlan Mahoney shifts from right wing to outside centre after his try double against the Brumbies, with Emmet Hall also moving to right wing from full-back after he crossed the whitewash and registered four conversions in the same game.
