The Super Rugby U19s season will come to an end this weekend in Sydney, as the NSW Waratahs and ACT Brumbies meet for the second time in as many weeks.
The Waratahs earned bragging rights and the home final at Rat Park with a 68-34 win last week at Viking Park, but the Brumbies will be coming in looking to go three-in-a-row as defending champions.
Head coach Lachie Creighton has shuffled his pack, making six changes to the Brumbies starting side that went down last week.
Billy Hansen, Bailey Bouquiaux, Sam Watson and Riley Whitfield all return to start with Jacob Johnson moving to his usual position at fullback and Paddy McInally starting on the right wing.
Ben Martens, Charlie Baker, Marley Ngatai, Harvey McLean and Laquan Afamiliona, who featured in last weekend's match, make their way onto the bench.
They are joined by front rowers Will Hodge, Jeziah Sega and Wagga City flanker Tyler Byrne, who is set to make his competition debut in the final.
The hosts, meanwhile, have opted for a settled side after making mass changes for last week's clash in Viking Park.
The side will be led by halves pairing Sam Blank and Henry Conick, with Marshall Le Maitre (c) retaining the captaincy for the final clash.
WARATAHS (1-15): Nick Hill, Tyler Maybery, Edwin Langi, Ed Baxter, Aron Brennan, Arthur Greer, Marshall Le Maitre (c), Toby Brial, Sam Blank, Henry Conick, Tom Watts, Zach Fittler, Riley Evans, Tom Farr-Jones, Louis Fenwicke
