Ben Donaldson will make his first run-on start of the year for the Wallabies when they face Argentina in the second Test in Mendoza on Sunday morning [AEST].
Wallabies coach Les Kiss' quest for greater competitiveness in his squad will see Donaldson wear the No. 10 jersey with Carter Gordon moving to the bench. Gordon was reported to have been an unlikely starter through injury earlier in the week, but he has been included among the replacements alongside halfback Kalani Thomas.
Gordon started the first Test against Ireland this season, before injury saw Declan Meredith then step in and wear the No. 10 jersey against France, Italy and in the first Test with Japan. Gordon then returned for the return Brave Blossoms Test in Townsville, and retained the jersey for last week's 27-21 over the Pumas.
Kiss has meanwhile continued his rotation in the forward pack, selecting a new starting front-row of Angus Bell, Billy Pollard and Taniela Tupou, with the tighthead also shaking off some injury concerns.
Skipper Harry Wilson returns at No. 8, with Rob Valetini shifting to the No. 6 jersey.
There are further changes in the backs with Len Ikitau and Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii to reform the midfield pairing that started in all three Tests of the Nations Championship.
Ikitau did not feature at all against Japan, while Suaalii was ruled out of the second Test with a minor hamstring strain. He came off the bench in an impressive 15-minute cameo last week and will now have the chance to reassert himself in the No. 13 jersey with Isaac Henry moved to the bench.
The changes are completed by Filipo Daugunu's selection on the left wing after Harry Potter endured a mixed afternoon in Jujuy last week that included a yellow card for a deliberate knockdown.
"After a physical Test last week, we've brought in some fresh bodies alongside some existing combinations as we continue to look to build Test experience across the group," Kiss said.
"We're expecting a strong response from Argentina on Saturday and we know we will need to keep stepping up our game in all areas."
