Scotland coach Andy Robinson is set to make wholesale changes to the starting line-up for Tuesday's match against Australia.

The Scots rounded off their RBS Six Nations campaign with defeat to Italy, and must show improvement if they are to challenge the likes of England, Ireland and Wales in future. With that in mind, Robinson is using the tour to the southern hemisphere as an opportunity to bring new blood into the ranks. Glasgow prop Ryan Grant wins his first cap after Allan Jacobsen suffered an injury in training, while for Edinburgh centre Matt Scott it will be just his second cap as he starts for the the first time. Scotland will have to do without the services of Max Evans, however, as his club Castres refused to release him, while Jim Hamilton misses out for disciplinary reasons.
