Australia have moved on from Eddie Jones, who was fired after the Wallabies crashed and burned at last year's World Cup. A third-place finish in their group saw the Wallabies miss out on the knockout stage for the first time ever, as Fiji pipped them to the post thanks to a stunning 22-15 victory in their head-to-head clash. Joe Schmidt is now calling the shots.
Wales endured a dismal Six Nations campaign earlier this year, collecting the wooden spoon with only four points to their name. Five defeats in five games led to calls for coach Warren Gatland to be dismissed, but he remains at the helm for now. A victory over Australia would no doubt help to solidify his position, but Wales have not defeated the Wallabies Down Under in 55 years.
Australia XV: Slipper, Faessler, Tupou, Williams, Salakaia-Loto, L. Wright, McReight, Valetini, Gordon, Lolesio, Daugunu, Paisami, Flook, Kellaway, T. Wright.
Wales XV: G. Thomas, Lake, Griffin, Tshiunza, Jenkins, Plumtree, Reffell, Wainwright, Bevan, B. Thomas, Dyer, Grady, Watkin, Hathaway, Williams.
