SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia captain Stephen Moore will return to the starting line-up in a new-look forwards unit for the weekend test against Italy at Lang Park in Brisbane, as coach Michael Cheika shuffled his pack on Thursday.

Cheika made six changes to the side that suffered a 24-19 loss to Scotland in Sydney last week and more could follow when he names his reserves on Friday.
