Captain Kianu Kereru-Symes returns to  lead the New Zealand under-20 rugby team with coach Craig Philpott ringing the changes for the must-win World Cup clash with South Africa.

Kereru-Symes will start at hooker and will be joined by Ollie Norris and Fletcher Newell in the front row for the final pool play clash with the Junior Springboks in Rosario, Argentina on Thursday morning (NZ time).

Lock Tupou Vaa'i is the only New Zealand forward who started in the 52-33 win over Scotland last weekend.

Samipeni Finau, Kohan Herbert and Devan Flanders combine as a dynamic loose forward trio for the second time after impressing in the 45-13 victory over Georgia.


In the backline Fergus Burke, Etene Nanai-Seturo and Billy Proctor retain their starting positions from the Scottish match.

Philpott said the team was ready for the challenge that South Africa would present.

"We have made a number of changes ahead of this match and there is a real sense of excitement in the group about going out and putting in a strong performance.


"It doesn't take much to motivate a group when they are pulling on the black jersey against South Africa, its important the team channel that energy and stick to our structures because we know it will be a hugely physical encounter."

The extended bench has plenty of fire power and Philpott said it will play a crucial role in the match.

"There has been a lot of learning around how to manage the extended bench, we are able to react to how the game is developing to make sure the players we bring on are in a position to make a real impact."

The New Zealand Under 20 side currently sit second, on points difference, behind South Africa in their pool. A win tomorrow would confirm their place in the semi-finals otherwise they would have to wait on other results to potentially qualify as the best finishing second place team.
