Wallabies add ineligible 'development player'

Queensland Reds duo Izaia Perese and Taniela Tupou have been named, alongside Waratahs pair Jack Dempsey and Andrew Kellaway, as Cheika has one eye on the future.

The four development players starred during the National Rugby Championship and will train with the squad as an introduction to the International level.

Perese, Dempsey and Kellaway are each eligible for Australia's tour game against the French Barbarians in Bordeaux on November 24, while Tupou is 12 months away from completing his three-year residency requirement under World Rugby regulations.

The players will join the Wallabies squad this Friday
