Wallabies Coach Dave Rennie says former Melbourne Storm winger Suliasi Vunivalu won’t wear a Wallabies jersey this year.
A lot has been said about Vunivalu being brought into the Wallabies set-up without any professional rugby experience.
But this situation has happened before.
Marika Koroibete joined the Wallabies on their end-of-season tour to Europe in 2016 before making his debut the following year.
Rennie says he wants Vunivalu to earn the right to wear the jersey.

Vunivalu is 24-years-old.
He scored 86 tries during his five-year stint with Melbourne Storm.
As a youngster growing up in Fiji, Vunivalu played at outside centre and on the wing before winning a scholarship to complete his schooling at Saint Kentigern College in New Zealand.
