Wallabies Team for the first test

The following is the Wallabies team to meet England on Saturday:-

15 Israel Folau, 14 Dane Haylett-Petty, 13 Tevita Kuridrani, 12 Samu Kerevi, 11 Rob Horne, 10 Bernard Foley, 9 Nick Phipps, 8 David Poc ock, 7 Michael Hooper, 6 Scott Fardy, 5 Rob Simmons, 4 Rory Arnold, 3 Greg Holmes, 2 Stephen Moore (c), Scott Sio.

Replacements:

16 Tatafu Polota-Nau, 17 James Slipper, 18 Sekope Kepu, 19 James Horwill, 20 Dean Mumm, 21 Sean McMahon, 22 Nick Frisby, 23 Christian Leali'ifano.

Only two backline players on the bench.   Is Speight and Tomane still injured?  Halett=Petty is an interesting selection on the wing.

 Strong team.
Great to see England selecting a strong side too.
This should be a great contest.

Good team except for the wings. AAC leaves a big gap and I know Tomane is injured but surely Nabuli is better than Haylett-Petty or Horne?

Very pleased for Samu Kerevi. I think this guy is going to make a big impact in test rugby.

 Oh gosh Kuridrani is there.....hahaha....what a sticky wicket. Still even the slowest SA fan must grasp now that we are going to be seriously challenged at centre this RC.

 The Aussie centers are physically strong - but slow.   But then you like certain  slow centers.
