Australia have made four enforced changes for the one-off Test against Canada on Saturday with Daniel Herbert (centre), Dan Crowley (prop), Scott Bowen (fly-half) and Mark Bell (hooker) coming in to replace Joe Roff (thumb), Ewen McKenzie (ankle fracture), Pat Howard (groin) and Marco Caputo (ankle ligaments).

AUSTRALIA (v Canada, Brisbane, 29 June): M Burke; B Tune, D Herbert, T Horan, D Campese; S Bowen, S Payne; M Brial, D Wilson, O Finegan, J Eales (capt), G Morgan, D Crowley, M Bell, R Harry.

Rowen Shepherd and Kevin McKenzie have shared Scotland's Player of the Tour award for the recent New Zealand trip. Full-back Shepherd scored 23 points in the two Tests against the All Blacks while the hooker McKenzie was described by his direct opponent the All Blacks captain Sean Fitzpatrick as "an outstanding player".
