MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) Australia coach Michael Cheika has made four changes to his starting side ahead of the second test against England, including a new-look front row.
Sekope Kepu and James Slipper join captain Stephen Moore in the front row while Sam Carter will play a test for the first time since Australia's 47-10 win over the United States in Chicago last year.
Cheika also announced Wednesday that he won't replace David Pocock, who has an injured left eye socket, with a traditional No. 8, instead handing Melbourne Rebels flanker Sean McMahon a start.
Pocock is out for the remainder of the three-test series.
England won the first test 39-28 in Brisbane last Saturday. The teams play a third test on June 25 in Sydney.
