France team to face Australia

The French team to take on Australia in the second of three tests has been announced.

The teams will clash on Tuesday at AAMI Park.

Last week, Australia snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, winning in the 83rd minute against a young and plucky French outfit.

There have been several changes to the pack from the first test. In the front row, Hounkpatin Bamba in the tightead role while Geraci and Taofifenua make way for Azagoh and Cazeaux in the engine room. In the loose-trio, Jelonch moves from the openside flank to number 8 while Diallo and Woki take their places on the side of the scrum. The backline remains unchanged.
