Australia have made three changes to their side for the second test with the Lions in Melbourne on Saturday. Matthew Burke returns at full back following a two year absence, while hooker Michael Foley and tighthead prop Rod Moore were brought in to replace the injured Jeremy Paul and Glenn Panoho.
Chris Latham, Australia's fullback who was replaced by Burke in last week's 29-13 first Test defeat, was dropped to make way for Burke's goalkicking ability, while Brendan Cannon was also added to the bench as the new replacement hooker.
Australia need to win in Melbourne to keep the three-test series alive, with defeat rendering the final test at Stadium Australia in Sydney on July 14 meaningless.
15-Matthew Burke; 14-Andrew Walker, 13-Daniel Herbert, 12-Nathan Grey, 11-Joe Roff; 10-Stephen Larkham, 9-George Gregan; 8-Toutai Kefu, 7-George Smith, 6-Owen Finegan, 5-John Eales (captain), 4-David Giffin; 3-Rod Moore, 2-Michael Foley, 1-Nick Stiles.
Replacements: 16-Brendan Cannon, 17-Ben Darwin, 18-Matt Cockbain, 19-David Lyons, 20-Chris Whitaker, 21-Elton Flatley, 22-Chris Latham.
