The Wallabies will play Fiji in Sunday's test match at the McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle.
Memories of the 2023 Rugby World Cup disaster show in France will be fresh in the minds of the Wallabies. The last time these two sides met, Fiji beat Australia 22-15 in what was one of their greatest victories in Rugby history, beating the Wallabies after 69 years.
Former captain David Porecki has returned to the lineup and will take the field on Sunday in a Wallabies jersey after 643 days. This will also be the side's only match before the three games against the touring British & Irish Lions.
Meanwhile, Fiji face the Wallabies on Australian soil for the first time since 2017. In 23 meetings between the teams, the Wallabies have dominated, winning 19 while Fiji have taken 3 games with one test ending in a draw.
