#3 Making some changes in the attacking set-up:

<p>

The Wallabies need to make some changes in their attacking set-up. Australia always look more dangerous when Bernard Foley, their fly-half, is given more attacking freedom. He can be a defensive liability at times but really has some superb attacking vision and finesse

Having Foley on the side would mean that the likes of Kurtley Beale and Reece Hodge would have to take more defensive responsibility. Beale could play as the outside centre, Hodge in the right wing, Marika Koroibete in the left wing and Israel Folau as the fullback. Koroibete scored 4 tries in 8 tests for the Wallabies last season which is a very impressive record for a debutant. The above formation would also enable Folau to make those incisive, try-scoring runs at times. Also, Hodge could share the penalty kicking responsibilities with Foley.
