Filipo Daugunu will make his debut for the Wallabies against the All Blacks on Sunday.

The Sydney Morning Herald reveals that Daugunu will join fellow Fijian Marika Koroibete on the wing for Australia.

Daugunu has been the Reds' highlight machine in recent years.


The Fijian flyer – who gave up his dreams of becoming Fijian soccer's top goalkeeper just five years ago – brings a similar level of finishing ability to the fold as fellow Fijian Marika Koroibete.

Dave Rennie has also included players such as James Slipper, Folau Fainga'a, Taniela Tupou, Lukhan Salakaia-Loto, Matt Philip, Pete Samu, Michael Hooper, Harry Wilson, Nic White, James O'Connor, Matt To'omua, Hunter Paisami, and Tom Banks.

The Wallabies will play the All Blacks at 3pm Sunday in the first Bledisloe Cup match.
