Wright has been left out of the squad along with Brumbies teammate Pete Samu and Rebel Reece Hodge.
Josh Kemeny and Matt Gibbon along with Reds prop Zane Nonggorr have also made way, with Pone Fa'amausili and Blake Schoupp retaining their place in the squad after they were late inclusions for the Sydney Test.
It comes as a host of players return from injury, headlined by Rebel Andrew Kellaway.
Kellaway is joined by backrower Langi Gleeson and outside back Jordan Petaia for the Tests in Melbourne and Dunedin.
Prop Taniela Tupou has also been confirmed to return after coming back via Australia A last week in Tonga.
“We’re very disappointed with the results during stage one of our campaign," Jones said in a statement.
“We need to find more in stage two and Melbourne will be ground where we will find our best.”
Co-captain Michael Hooper has been named in the rehab group, although remained confident he will be fit for the opening Bledisloe Test at the MCG on July 29.
The squad will assemble on the Gold Coast today for a three-day camp before heading to Melbourne.
