Izack Rodda and Feleti Kaitu’u have been named in the Wallabies squad for the Rugby Championships Test against the Springboks at Cbus Super Stadium on the Gold Coast this Sunday.

After returning to the Test side via the pine last week against the All Blacks at Optus Stadium, towering lock Rodda earns a starting berth in the second row alongside Matt Philip.

Feleti Kaitu’u will potentially make his Wallabies debut on Sunday, with the powerful hooker named on the bench. This is Kaitu’u’s first Wallabies matchday squad selection after enjoying an outstanding Super Rugby campaign for the Western Force this year.

You can catch the duo in action when the Wallabies take on South Africa at Cbus Super Stadium, Gold Coast on Sunday 12 September, 6:05pm AWST.

Every Wallabies Test will be ad-free, live and on-demand with extended coverage on Stan Sport. At the same time, every home Wallabies Test will also be live, free-to-air on the Nine Network.

Tickets for the eToro Rugby Championship are available via wallabies.rugby.
