THURSDAY - 17th November 2005
Hull winger Gareth Raynor will make his Great Britain debut in Saturdays must-win Gillette Tri-Nations match against Australia.
The 27-year-old will be on the left wing, with Bradfords versatile Leon Pryce set to switch to full-back in place of the injured Paul Wellens, although coach Brian Noble will not reveal his starting line-up until an hour before kick-off.
Raynor will be one of three Hull men playing on their home ground, with Richard Horne set to take over at scrum-half from the injured Paul Deacon and prop Jamie Thackray continuing on the bench.
Winger Brian Carney has been passed fit after coming off with a hamstring injury in last Saturdays 38-12 win over New Zealand while Lee Gilmour and Kevin Sinfield, both dropped a week ago, have been included in an 18-strong squad.
