Scotland will be one of Australia's three opponents in next summer's June internationals.

The Wallabies will host Fiji, the Scots and then Italy, the Australian Rugby Union (ARU) have confirmed.

Australia will take on the Pacific Islanders at Melbourne's Rectangular Stadium on June 10 before facing Scotland, who beat the Wallabies in a Newcastle storm on their last trip Down Under in 2012, at the Sydney Football Stadium the following Saturday.

Italy, who have never beaten Australia, will then be the opponents at Brisbane's Lang Park. In a departure from recent practice, all three matches will have afternoon kick-offs.
