Five Melbourne Rebels have been named to take on Portugal in the Australia A clash in France this coming Saturday.

Sam Talakai will be joined in the starting pack by towering Lock Josh Canham, with a backline that features Lachie Anderson in the number 14 jersey. Matt Gibbon and James Tuttle are set to bring strength and impact from the bench.
Brumbies scrumhalf Ryan Lonergan will lead the side, joined by experienced flyhalf Bernard Foley in the halves.
