SYDNEY (AP) — Joe Schmidt has made four changes to the Wallabies starting lineup to face Argentina on Saturday in a Rugby Championship match, including the injury-forced decision to give flyhalf Tane Edmed his first test start.

Edmed made his test debut off the bench in Ireland last year and played in the Wallabies recent test against South Africa in Cape Town. He replaces 22-year-old Tom Lynagh, who has a hamstring strain.

Australia has won two of its three tests in the Rugby Championship. The Wallabies had an upset win over the World Cup champion Springboks at Ellis Park in Johannesburg and a narrow loss in Cape Town to open the tournament before last week’s last-minute win at Townsville in north Queensland state.

Argentina is 1-2, but its victory includes a first-ever home win
