    Nic White and Taniela Tupou return to the Wallabies starting side for Saturday night's Rugby Championship return bout against South Africa

    Nic White and Taniela Tupou return to the Wallabies starting side for Saturday night's Rugby Championship return bout against South Africa


    White replaces Tate McDermott at halfback, with Tupou earning his first start of the tournament after prop Allan Alaalatoa left Wallabies camp for the birth of his first child.

    Veteran James Slipper also returns to the front row, with Angus Bell to warm the bench after starting in last weekend's win over the Springboks.
