Wallabies and NSW Waratahs five-eighth Bernard Foley expects the Queensland Reds to target his recently-injured shoulder in his Super Rugby return in Brisbane on Sunday.

Foley, who had an off-season stint in Japan, missed the Waratahs’ first three games with an AC joint injury he suffered in their final pre-season trial.

“Physically I feel fine, it will be a good test for the shoulder. I’m sure the Reds will probably send a bit of traffic that way,” Foley said on Thursday.
