Australia captain Harry Wilson called on his side to “fire some shots” against Scotland after suffering a record defeat by England.
The Wallabies fell 45-22 against England at Twickenham on Sunday after taking more than half an hour to get inside their hosts’ 22.
Australia have now gone four games without victory after drawing with Argentina and losing twice against New Zealand. They have conceded 138 points in three matches.
Although they beat South Africa in September, they have also suffered home defeats against France and Ireland this year.
Wilson said: “We want a big response. It wasn’t good enough.
“I want us to go out there and fire some shots, be a lot more physical in defence and put Scotland under pressure. We need to do that and it’s on us to do it.”
Australia could have Carter Gordon and Tom Hooper back for Sunday’s encounter in Edinburgh, and head coach Les Kiss signalled there will be changes as they come up against a Scotland side who suffered a similar defeat against New Zealand.
“We’ll look at every aspect of our selection process and go through that for sure,” Kiss said.
“We want competition and it hasn’t been good enough, so we’ve got to look at that closely, for sure.”
