Wallabies wary of physical Georgia | 00:43The Wallabies will have a third captain in three games under new coach Joe Schmidt , with Liam Wright failing to recover in time for Saturday’s clash with Georgia.
Queensland Reds back-rower Harry Wilson will play his first Test since 2022, named to start at No. 8, while front-rowers Isaac Kailea and Billy Pollard, with just four Tests between them, will both earn their first starts for the Wallabies, having played as reserves against Wales. Schmidt has also confirmed a new halves pairing. Tate McDermott and Ben Donaldson will combine in the halves, the latter playing just his second Test on home soil and his first in his home city.
