The Safeguard Global ACT Brumbies are proud to announce that five Super Rugby Women's representatives will be lining up for the Wallaroos as they take on Scotland in a WXV 2 title decider in Cape Town on the 13th of October.
Sunday's 2:00AM (AEST) fixture will be the sides final international of the year and following back-to-back wins against Wales and South Africa.
Sally Fuesaina returns to the game day 23, coming off the bench in what will be her fourth cap for the Wallaroos.
Meanwhile, four Brumbies retain their starting positions as Tania Naden, Siokapesi Palu, Tabua Tuinakauvadra and Faitala Moleka all feature in the run-on side once again.
Wallaroos coach Jo Yapp said: “Our performances over the past fortnight have been positive but we’ll need to go to another level against Scotland this weekend." “We want to keep our starting side as consistent as possible so Sally and Alapeta return to the bench in the only changes to the 23." “We want to step up and improve on our last performance and if we can play at our best we can finish the year on a strong note.”
