Seven Brumbies have been recalled to the top squad following strong hit-outs in the Bledisloe Cup matches, as Allan Alaalatoa, Nick Frost, James Slipper, Rob Valetini, Len Ikitau, Noah Lolesio and Tom Wright all look to add to their existing Wallabies caps.
Also taking his place in the squad looking for some more game time in the green and gold is Billy Pollard, who last featured for the Wallabies in Perth taking on South Africa last month.
