Canada coach Kieron Crowley has kept faith with the majority of the side that were beaten 55-0 by Ireland last week for the Invesco Perpetual Series match with Wales this Friday (kick-off 19:30).

Crowley has made just two changes to his starting line-up as he looks for his side to gel in the one of the toughest test arenas in world rugby.

Lock Tyler Hotson, 23, and blindside flanker Jebb Sinclair, 22, have been given a chance to mark their mark in the Millennium Stadium.

Crowley said: "The Ireland defeat really dented our pride but this is the first time we've been together as a group and we want to bounce back.

"We've got a lot of young guys on tour for the first time and we want to give them the opportunity to see high level performance, take the experience on board and learn."
