There's big news, as key back-rower Aaron Wainwright is ruled out of the remainder of their tour, with Taine Plumtree taking the No. 8 shirt.

Cameron Winnett is named at full-back to make his first appearance Down Under, with Liam Williams and Rio Dyer flanking him on the wings.

The first test marked eight losses on the bounce for Wales, and Gatland’s young bucks are in desperate need of a solid performance to raise morale.

Joe Schmidt, however, has reintroduced some long-awaited positivity and optimism in the Wallabies camp after the first test.
