Argentina name development side

Argentina have named their side to face an Ireland Development XV at Dublin's Donnybrook ground, with Leeds Tykes centre Hernan Senillosa and former Natal Sharks scrum-half Nicolás Fernández Miranda among the Pumas' midweek starters.

Miranda captains the side ahead of their Test against Ireland at Lansdowne Road on Saturday, getting a chance to start in the No 9 shirt while regular half-backs Agustin Pichot and Felipe Contepomi sit on the bench.

Contepomi's brother Manuel starts alongside Senillosa in the centres, saying ahead of the game: "I am very anxious to play and have a lot of desire. I am adapting to the intensity of the international game and finding the training levels."

Narbonne's Bernardo Stortoni is in at fullback for regular starter Ignacio Corleto, in a side which sees a number of stars rested after their 36-6 win over Italy in Rome last Saturday.

Meanwhile, having initially named their squad for the match, the Ireland Development coaches have been forced into a late change, with a shoulder injury to Connacht's Ronan McCormack meaning a call-up for Ulster prop Justin Fitzpatrick.

Argentina: B Stortoni; J Piossek, M Gaitán, M Contepomi, H Senillosa; J Miranda, N Miranda (capt), M Scelzo, J Villar, S Bonorino, P Albacete, P Sporleder, M Durand, M Schusterman, I Fernanadez Lobbe.

Replacements: M Ledesma, M Reggiardo, R Alvarez, R Martin, A Pichot, J Orengo, J M Hernández.
