Nicolás Ariel Bruzzone: Strong showings for the Pumas

Argentina have taken the early step of naming their playing squad of twelve ahead of the next two events in the IRB Sevens World Series in Hong Kong and Adelaide.

One notable ommission is Pablo Gomez Cora, brother of all-time leading Sevens try-scorer Santiago, who will stay in Argentina for the birth of his first child.

The rest of the outfit has a settled look with Martín Bustos Moyano and Gonzalo Oscar Camacho the only two players not to have played in Wellington and San Diego in the last two rounds of the series.

The UAR has also announced a change of coach for the two tournaments, Gonzalo García Orsetti taking over from Duncan Forrester, who led the side to the final of the Plate in San Diego.

Argentina squad: Alejandro Abadie, Federico Graciano Amelong, Gabriel Ascarate, Nicolás Ariel Bruzzone, Martín Bustos Moyano, Gonzalo Oscar Camacho, Adrián Cherro, Ramiro José del Busto, Santiago Gomez Cora, Lucas Pedro Gonzalez Amorosino, Alfredo Lalanne, Andrés Sebastián Romagnoli
