Suliasi Vunivalu and Ben Donaldson will get the chance to justify their World Cup selections after being named for the Wallabies against France.
Suliasi Vunivalu and Ben Donaldson will get the chance to justify contentious World Cup selection after Eddie Jones named both in a largely settled Wallabies side to take on France in the final warm-up game for both sides on Monday morning .
Will Skelton will captain the side for the first time in a forward pack that is also almost unchanged, apart from Taniela Tupou returning from a rib injury at tighthead prop. He replaces Pone Fa’amausili.The six-two bench contains a number of changes, however, with Jones giving a number of lightly used players the chance to get more game time.
Donaldson also started in that Test in the Wallabies No.10, and after being selected by Jones in every squad this year but failing to get a minute in the Rugby Championship, the Randwick utility has been included on the bench as well.Getty
