SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia coach Dave Rennie made only one minor tweak to his team on Sunday for this week's second test against France, keeping faith with the line-up that snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in the series opener.

Taniela Tupou moved up from the bench to replace Allan Alaalatoa at tighthead prop after causing the French all sorts of problems as a replacement in the 23-21 victory in Brisbane on Wednesday.
