Winger forced to leave camp after picking up calf injuryThe Wallabies must make at least two enforced team changes after winger Dylan Pietsch was forced out of the grand slam spring tour of Europe with a calf injury.The Western Force recruit’s disappointment is joy for Queensland Reds and Australia XV vice-captain Josh Flook, who will join the squad after impressing in a 10-10 draw with Bristol on the weekend.
With skipper Harry Wilson also out of Monday’s clash with Wales due to concussion protocols, coach Joe Schmidt will need to make changes in the back row and backline. Veteran Kerevi would be making his first Test appearance since last year’s ill-fated World Cup, while English-born Potter would become the 18th debutant under Schmidt.
