UDINE, Italy, (Reuters) - Injuries have forced Argentina into a major reshuffle among the backs for Saturday’s test against Italy in Udine but the forward line stays almost intact after coach Felipe Contepomi named his side on Thursday.
In the backline, only flyhalf Tomas Albornoz and wing Rodrigo Isgro keep their places from the starting lineup that lost 48-7 to South Africa in September’s Rugby Championship decider in Nelspruit.
