Dave Rennie insists Australia "know the enemy" but are not playing the underdogs tag this week as they prepare for Saturday night's big clash with Ireland.
Rennie has named close to a full strength side for the Autumn series showdown at the Aviva Stadium, where the hosts are hoping to equal a record 12th successive home win that was set during Joe Schmidt's reign.
But the Wallabies head coach started the week on the back foot after facing a barrage of criticism for the display against Italy in Florence, with the Azzurri beating Australia for the first time.
