The Wallabies are set to bring in fresh faces for the third Test against France.
MELBOURNE: Wallabies coach Dave Rennie is set to bring in fresh faces for the deciding Test against France to inject “some key energy” with skipper Michael Hooper admitting “it sucks” losing to Les Bleus.
The three-Test series is finely poised after two close games that went to the wire, with Australia edging the first in Brisbane 23-21 before France bounced back at Melbourne on Tuesday to clinch a hard-fought 28-26 win.
It was the visitors’ first victory against the Wallabies on Australian soil since 1990 in Sydney, with fullback Melvyn Jaminet the hero, drilling seven penalties, including the winner three minutes from time.
The Wallabies were again poor at the breakdown with ill-discipline once more costing them points.
