The Waratahs welcome back Sarel Pretorius and Jono Jenkins for the clash with the Hurricanes. Pretorius will replace Brendan McKibbin at scrum-half, while Jenkins comes in on the flank for Chris Alcock. However the Waratahs, who will look to snap their five-game winless streak, will still be without the injured Rocky Elsom. Hurricanes coach Mark Hammett has unsurprisingly kept faith in the same match-day squad following the 66-24 thumping of the Rebels.
