ELLIOT Dee is set to win his first Wales cap from the bench against Georgia on Saturday while his Dragons teammates Hallam Amos, Leon Brown and Cory Hill have all been given starts.

Hooker Dee, 23, has been rewarded for a fine start to the season with a first international call-up and has been named as Kristian Dacey's back-up for the second autumn Test at Principality Stadium.

Wing Amos, tighthead Brown and lock Hill were all replacements in last week's loss to Australia but are handed starting berths for the clash with the uncompromising Georgians.

The last time that the Dragons had four players in a Wales 23 was against the Wallabies in the third-place play-off of the 2011 World Cup when lock Luke Charteris, blindside Dan Lydiate and number eight Taulupe Faletau were in the XV and hooker Lloyd Burns was on the bench.

Warren Gatland has, as promised, rung the changes for the second Test of the series with Lydiate skippering the side.

Liam Williams is the sole survivor in the XV, moving from wing to full-back, while scrum-half Rhys Webb makes a welcome return from injury.

Brynmawr's Sam Cross makes his first start at openside flanker while Cardiff Blues' Seb Davies moves back to number eight.

"We felt this week was really important to give a number of the squad as much exposure as possible to test match rugby,” said Gatland.

“It is an exciting opportunity for some of the younger guys to take the field and show us what they are capable of.  We have got a fair amount of experience to throw into the mix too, both with players who have got  a decent number of cap numbers but also players who have been around this environment for a good while too.”

“Georgia are coming to Cardiff on the back of a good victory last weekend and they will be looking to show what they can do on this stage and we have to be ready for that.”
