Australia Kangaroos coach Mal Meninga has named four debutants to face France on Friday night at Canberra Stadium. 

Winger Tom Trbojevic and front-rower Reagan Campbell-Gillard will take their places in the starting side, while Felise Kaufusi and Cameron Munster - who made his Queensland Maroons debut this year - will play off the interchange bench.
 
“I have made it very clear that I wanted to give all players in the squad a chance to play in the green and gold through the course of the World Cup and we are very much working towards that,” Meninga said.
 
“That will give me and the coaching staff a good opportunity to see what all of those players can do and will help to shape our squad for the remainder of the tournament.”
 
The 21-man squad to face France is as follows:
