Filipo Daugunu has been named in the starting line-up for the Queensland Reds for Saturday’s Vodafone Super Rugby AU final against the Brumbies in Canberra.

Daugunu scored a try for the Reds in their 25-13 victory over the Melbourne Rebels last week and also came up with several crucial breakdown penalty wins and was lethal in attack.

After being cleared of concussion, Jordan Petaia will shift to the right wing with Chris Feauai-Sautia ruled-out due to a groin injury.

Hunter Paisami will start in the number 13 jersey and will re-join Hamish Stewart in the midfield.

Other players that are included in the Reds team are Taniela Tupou, Liam Wright, Tate McDermott, James O’Connor and Jock Campbell.

The Reds will take on the Brumbies at 9.15 pm Saturday.
