Wallabies openside flank Fraser McReight will earn his 50th Test cap against England at Twickenham on Sunday.
The 2026 John Eales Medallist has been named in a reshuffled loose trio alongside Jeremy Williams, who starts at blindside flank, and captain Harry Wilson at No 8.
Coach Les Kiss has also recalled Len Ikitau, who missed Australia’s win against the Springboks in Perth under concussion protocols. He will partner Isaac Henry in midfield.
Joseph Suaalii returns to the venue where he made his Test debut in 2024, starting on the right wing, with Max Jorgensen on the left.
Tom Wright retains the No 15 jersey for his 10th consecutive Test, while Brumbies teammates Ryan Lonergan and Declan Meredith form the halfback combination.
TEAM: Fin declared fit for England
Up front, Angus Bell returns at loosehead prop alongside hooker Billy Pollard and tighthead Allan Alaalatoa, while Josh Canham and Lukhan Salakaia-Loto make up the second row.
Taniela Tupou is back in the match 23 and will provide front-row cover alongside Josh Nasser and Isaac Kailea.
Rob Valetini and Carlo Tizzano are the other forward replacements, with Tate McDermott, Ben Donaldson and Filipo Daugunu providing backline options.
“Playing England on their home turf – at an iconic venue like Twickenham – is a massive challenge and another great opportunity for us to test ourselves against world-class opposition and keep building our game,” said Kiss.
