Wallabies captain Michael Hooper is excited that Marika Koroibete is back on the team after being suspended for one match and is looking forward to what the former NRL star can do on the field.
Koroibete, Pone Fa’amausili and Isi Naisarani were crossed off from last week's selection because of alcohol-related issues.
Hooper says Koroibete is a dangerous player across the field and he has shown it during training this week.
Koroibete has been named to start on the wing in place of Jordan Petaia.
Other players included in the starting line-up are Allan Alaalatoa, Matt Philip, Rob Valetini, Noah Lolesio, Andrew Kellaway and Tom Banks.
The Wallabies are 1 down in the 2021 Bledisloe series and will need a win to have the decider played in Perth on the 28th of this month.
The Wallabies will face the All Blacks in the second Bledisloe Test at 7.05 tonight.
