Queensland Reds flyhalf, Hamish Stewart will combine with Ryan Lonergan in the halves with Bayley Kuenzle coming in for Isaac Lucas in the centres.
Junior Wallabies Head Coach, Jason Gilmore said: “Italy have played some really good Rugby at this tournament and they are an exciting team.
“They only lost one game in their Pool to England and have threats all over the park, which we look forward to meeting.
“It’ll be a different style of Rugby to what we have played this year, so the team will have to be ready for the challenge and to adapt.”
