Flyhalf Carter Gordon has been drafted straight into the Wallabies squad just a couple of hours after his return from rugby league was announced on Monday as Tom Lynagh is being rested for the end-of-season tour of Japan and Europe.

Gordon was released from the last year of his contract with the Gold Coast Titans and will resume his career in the 15-man code on a tour that features tests against Japan, England, Italy, Ireland and France.
