Hooper still on the bench though. Not really needed and he should have the game off heading into a big QF.

Match thread
Georgia (Pool D)
Wallabies captain Michael Hooper and lock Adam Coleman have been ruled out of Friday night's final pool match against Georgia.
Hooper played no part in Thursday's captain's run in Shizuoka with Lukhan Salakaia-Loto running in his place in full captain's run gear.
Coleman has been replaced by Rob Simmons in the matchday 23, with the latter now in line to play his 100th Test.
Australia's usual skipper was initially named on the bench for this weekend's match with flanker David Pocock set to start and captain the side against Georgia.
Hooper's late withdrawal means the flanker would have to wait until a Rugby World Cup semi-final to hit his own Test century.
Both are expected to be fit for Australia's quarter-final next week, all but certainly against England, after Wales beat Fiji on Wednesday night.
Forwards coach Simon Raiwalui played down any concerns over the fitness of the two.
"They're just little niggles they're nothing too major but with that (quarter-final spot) confirmed we decided to go that way," he said.

I hope Aus run rampant tonight, i want them up and about against England next week.
Or - even better - struggle through with a 15-point win, look like a bucket of shit doing it, and then ambush those white-shirted fuckers in the QF.
Ah, I can dream....

So we're waiting for Moore to say none of the Wallabies would make the England team.
