There’s a famous phrase that applies to every sport on the globe: “There’s always next week.” The Wallabies may not have won last night’s Test against England, but there’s still two more matches to be played in this series.

Our attention is already turned to next week’s Test at AAMI Park in Melbourne and the first question on our minds is, what changes need to be made to the side that lost to England by 11 points on Saturday night?

How did the Wallabies’ four debutants perform and should they hold their spots? Does this team need more experience ahead of the second Test, or should we experiment further with the young talent waiting in the wings? In short: who comes in, who goes out?

For the answer to this all-important question Roarers, we’re asking you. No doubt there’ll be a wide variety of opinions on the matter, and in this Roar Forum we invite you to let us know in the comments below exactly what yours is.

For your reference, here’s the full team from last night:
