Three changes were made to the side that lost 57-7 to Italy in Romania’s final warm-up match.
Romania were disqualified from the last edition of the World Cup in Japan for fielding an ineligible player in the qualifiers.
Coach Eugen Apjok has made three changes to his starting XV from the side that lost 57-7 to Italy in their final warm-up fixture last month, as well as a host of positional adjustments to the back line. He will have Gabriel Rupanu alongside him and, incredibly, it is the seventh different half-back pairing for the team this year.
Former Australia junior international Jason Tomane is at inside centre, with Tongan-born Tangimana Fonovai at No 13.The only change to the pack comes at flanker where Florian Rosu comes in for Damian Stratila. Chirica and Vlad Neculau make up the rest of the back row.
