Stephen Cluxton is linking up with his team-mates in Australia tonight following his club's exit from the Dublin County Championship.
The Dublin's All Ireland winning goalkeeper and International Rules captain is flying out to join the Irish camp after Parnells were beaten at the weekend.
Colm Begley, Finian Hanley and Leighton Glynn are also making the trip with Cluxton.
Earlier today, the Irish team held their first training session in Melbourne in preparation for Friday's test match against their Australian counterparts.
