Wallabies Skipper Stephen Moore

Wallabies Skipper Stephen Moore looks set to be given a home Test farewell against the All Blacks in Brisbane this Saturday.

Moore has come off the bench in the past two Wallabies Tests, but there was speculation the 34‑year‑old might be overlooked in favour of youngster Jordan Uelese, for Saturday’s final Bledisloe clash.

Departing Wallabies scrum coach Mario Ledesma gave the strongest indication yet that Moore would receive his farewell.

Ledesma said Moore deserved to have a final outing on home soil.

Moore is likely to join the Wallabies on Spring Tour before retiring from Tests at the end of 2017, and playing a final season with the Reds in 2018.

The All Blacks will take on the Wallabies at 10pm this Saturday in the final Bledisloe Cup test.
