Wallace was put through a fitness test in Melbourne on Friday morning, but his injured calf showed signs of distress and he was immediately withdrawn from the team.

The inexperienced Shane Jennings has been called into the starting XV and will wear the number seven jersey, while Stephen Ferris will start on the bench.

Interim Ireland coach Michael Bradley said the loss of Wallace was a huge blow for the side, but he expects Jennings to step up and fill the void with ease.

"David has had a very good season with Munster and with Ireland. He played very well last week against the All Blacks so he will be missed," Bradley said.

"But Shane Jennings is a fine player and this creates an opportunity for him. Shane is a quality player and it will be a big test for him."
