Berliner Tageblatt - Wallabies axe Wright, Hodge for All Blacks Tests

The pair paid the price for consecutive defeats to South Africa and Argentina, leaving the former England boss without a win since being parachuted into the job this year ahead of the World Cup.

Loose forward Pete Samu was another high-profile casualty from a 34-man squad for Tests in Melbourne on July 29, which doubles as a Rugby Championship match, and Dunedin a week later.

"We're very disappointed with the results during stage one of our campaign," Jones said.

"We need to find more in stage two and Melbourne will be a ground where we will find our best."

Jones started Hodge at inside centre against South Africa in Pretoria, and Wright at fullback for that game and last week's narrow 34-31 home loss to Argentina.

Backs Andrew Kellaway and Jordan Petaia return from injury to press for a place on the starting XV.

Big prop Taniela Tupou also returns after a successful comeback for Australia A in Tonga last weekend, as does back-rower Langi Gleeson.

Co-captain Michael Hooper, who has been nursing a calf injury and missed the Argentina match, was included among a "rehab group", but appears unlikely to play.

Centre Len Ikitau fractured his shoulder against the Pumas and will miss both All Blacks games.
