Wing Jack Maddocks will make his first Test start in one of four changes to the Wallabies side ahead of the clash against the All Blacks in Auckland.

Dane Haylett-Petty has shifted to fullback to replace the injured Israel Folau. Maddocks, who made his Test debut in Sydney last week, will come into the starting side as a result.

Prop Scott Sio has returned from injury and Allan Alalaatoa has also been promoted to the starting front row. The Brumbies pair has replaced Tom Robertson and Sekope Kepu, who drop to the bench after starting in Sydney.

Coach Michael Cheika has also given hooker Folau Faingaa and utility back Tom Banks the chance to make their debuts at Eden Park by naming the pair on the bench.

Wallabies – 15 Dane Haylett-Petty, 14 Jack Maddocks, 13 Reece Hodge, 12 Kurtley Beale, 11 Marika Koroibete, 10 Bernard Foley, 9 Will Genia, 8 David Pocock, 7 Michael Hooper (c), 6 Lukhan Tui, 5 Adam Coleman, 4 Izack Rodda, 3 Allan Alaalato, 2 Tatafu Polota-Nau, 1 Scott Sio.
Subs: 16 Folau Faingaa, 17 Tom Robertson, 18 Sekope Kepu, 19 Rob Simmons, 20 Pete Samu, 21 Nick Phipps, 22 Matt Toomua, 23 Tom Banks.
