Australia's rugby team will deploy Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii on the wing for the opening Bledisloe Cup Test against New Zealand, head coach Les Kiss announced on Thursday. The selection ensures Suaalii, a notable back, keeps his spot in a lineup that also brings in newcomer Isaac Henry.
Kiss has chosen a stable squad, giving Henry his first call-up while maintaining confidence in Suaalii out wide. The match represents the first meeting in the Bledisloe Cup series between the Wallabies and the All Blacks.
Key Analysis
Keeping Suaalii on the wing underscores the coach's trust in the star back's skills, while Henry's inclusion indicates a mix of experience and new talent as Australia gets ready to take on New Zealand.
