    Genia returns with Folau and Phipps to earn their 50th cap against Scotland

    Qantas Wallabies coach Michael Cheika has made just the one change to his starting side for the Test against Scotland at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh on Sunday morning (1.35am AEDT kick-off).

    Will Genia goes straight into the starting side after returning to Qantas Wallabies camp this week after completing club duties with Stade Francais.

    The scrumhalf last played for the Wallabies more than a month ago, in the 33-21 win over Argentina in London.

    It’s a milestone game for star fullback Israel Folau, who will bring up his 50th cap in the rematch of the 2015 Rugby World Cup quarter-final.

    The 27-year old has raced to the half century mark, only missing three possible Tests since making his debut against the British and Irish Lions in June 2013.

    Reserve scrumhalf Nick Phipps will also get the chance to earn his 50th cap after making his debut against Samoa in 2011.

    Phipps’ switch to the bench is one of four changes to the reserves with Dean Mumm returning following a one-week suspension and Will Skelton set for his first Test since August.

    The Wallabies will wear a red poppy in commemoration of Remembrance Day and donate a match jersey signed by the Test squad to the Mates4Mates charity.

    Mates4Mates supports current and ex-serving Australian Defence Force members (and their families) who are wounded, injured or ill as a result of their service. More information at www.mates4mates.org

The Test between the Qantas Wallabies and Scotland will be screened LIVE on beIN Sports 3 (Foxtel channel 515) from 1.00am AEDT on Sunday 6 November. Fans can also LIVE stream the match on Foxtel GO (for Foxtel subscribers) and through beIN Sports Connect at https://connect.beinsports.com/au/.
