Seven uncapped players have been included in the squad that will help shape the team for the upcoming Tests against Fiji, England and Ireland.

The line up has been name for the Fiji test:

Wallabies team
15. Kurtley Beale, 14. Digby Ioane, 13. Rob Horne, 12. Matt Giteau, 11. Adam Ashley-Cooper, 10. Quade Cooper, 9.
Luke Burgess, 8. Richard Brown, 7. David Pocock, 6. Rocky Elsom (c), 5. Nathan Sharpe, 4. Dean Mumm, 3. Salesi Ma'afu 2. Huia Edmonds, 1. Ben Alexander
Run on reserves:
16. Saia Faingaa, 17. Pekahou Cowan,18. Mark Chisholm, 19. Matt Hodgson, 20. Josh Valentine, 21. Drew Mitchell, 22. James O'Connor

Dont like Beale at all so im not sure about him at the back. Spose its only Fiji, O Connor I think will get a go in the 2nd half and hopefully show him up Wink.

I think our full strength back line should be:
9 Genia
10 Cooper
11 Mitchell
12 Gits
13 AAC
14 Ioane
15 O Connor

Burgess, Barnes and Hynes on the bench.
