Wallabies captain Michael Hooper says the three players banned for breaking the team's alcohol protocols have already taken steps to win back the trust of the group.
Star winger Marika Koroibete and strike forwards Isi Naisarani and Pone Fa'a-mau-sili were made unavailable for tomorrow's Bledisloe Cup opener in Auckland after consuming alcohol for more than two hours after curfew last week.
Koroibete's loss will particularly hurt the Wallabies as they attempt to end a 35-year hoodoo at Eden Park.
Wallabies coach Dave Rennie says there was a big chunk of the squad that were angry over the trio's actions, with senior players alerting team management of the breach.
Hooper says the breach was disappointing, but he's liked what he's seen from the trio since then.
The Wallabies face the All Blacks at 7.05pm tomorrow.
