July 16 : Wales coach Steve Tandy has made six changes for the Nations Championship test against South Africa in Durban on Saturday, including a return to the starting 15 for wing Louis Rees-Zammit and the selection of Dan Edwards at flyhalf.
• Rees-Zammit replaces Ellis Mee from the side that lost 35-21 to Argentina last weekend, and forms a back three with Josh Adams and fullback Blair Murray.
• Edwards comes into the side for Sam Costelow, while there is a new centre-pairing as Ben Thomas and Max Llewellyn have been preferred to Joe Hawkins and Eddie James respectively.
• Captain Dewi Lake has won his fitness battle to start in the front row, and will have props Rhys Carre and Dillon Lewis either side of him.
