Australia make six changes

Australia have made six changes to their side from that which beat Argentina 17-6 in Buenos Aires for Saturday's Test match with Ireland at Lansdowne Road.

Coach Eddie Jones said selectors had picked the best side available. He said: "We've picked a pretty exciting line-up for this Test.

"We've got Adam Freier making his full debut, Matt Giteau on the bench, but at the same time we've got seasoned campaigners like David Giffin making a comeback from surgery and Owen Finegan starting in the second row."

AUSTRALIA: M Burke; W Sailor, S Mortlock, D Herbert, S Staniforth; S Larkham, G Gregan; N Stiles, A Freier, P Noriega, O Finegan, D Giffin, M Cockbain, G Smith, T Kefu.
