MELBOURNE : Jordan Petaia has been recalled to the Wallabies for his first test of the season, replacing the suspended Marika Koroibete on the wing for the Bledisloe Cup opener against the All Blacks at Eden Park on Saturday.

Koroibete, number eight Isi Naisarani and prop Pone Fa'amausili were all ruled out of selection after breaking a team curfew during a drinking session at their Auckland hotel last weekend. Australia edged a depleted France 2-1 in the July series but face a different beast against the All Blacks, who they have not beaten at Eden Park in 35 years.

"We've had a strong week on the training field and the team is in good shape heading to Auckland. We have a great opportunity to show how tight we are as a group on Saturday night and create our own history in the Wallabies jersey.”
