# Rugby: Flyhalf Carter Gordon and forward Tom Hooper have been ruled out of Australia’s Nations Championship clash against France in Brisbane on Saturday. Gordon will also miss next week’s match against Italy in Perth after picking up a calf injury in their narrow 31-33 defeat to Ireland last weekend. Hooper has sustained a shoulder injury. Uncapped flyhalf Harry McLaughlin-Phillips has been drafted as cover for Gordon, but Ben Donaldson is likely to start against France after replacing Gordon early in the second half against Ireland.
