Wales’ Dan Biggar evades a tackle during the Rugby World Cup Pool C match between Wales and Fiji at the Stade de Bordeaux in Bordeaux, France, Sunday, Sept. 10, 2023.

When asked on Tuesday if Biggar was fit to play the Pumas this weekend, assistant coach Jonathan Thomas said, “Yes.” Anscombe replaced Biggar against Australia and scored 23 points, and was due to start against Georgia but tweaked his groin while kicking in the game warmup and withdrew.
