London - Eightman Ben McCalman has been ruled out of Australia's match against the Barbarians in London on Saturday with an eye irritation, the team said.
McCalman will be replaced by Waratahs loose forward Dave Dennis, with Radike Samo now taking his place on the bench.
Australia, who will be captained by openside flanker David Pocock, have won their last seven matches against the Barabarians, their last a 55-7 thrashing in Sydney in 2009.
The Barbarians are led by New Zealand's World Cup winning coaches Graham Henry and Steve Hansen, with South Africa's Victor Matfield captaining the side in his last game.
Henry has stepped down as coach of the All Blacks with his former assistant Hansen the hot favourite to replace him and to take the team towards the next World Cup in England in 2015.
