The Safeguard Global ACT Brumbies are proud to announce that eight club representatives have been selected for the Wallabies tour while another nine players will be lining up for Australia XV in Europe next month.
Seven Brumbies have been recalled to the top squad following strong hit-outs in the Bledisloe Cup matches, as Allan Alaalatoa, Nick Frost, James Slipper, Rob Valetini, Len Ikitau, Noah Lolesio and Tom Wright all look to add to their existing Wallabies caps.
Also taking his place in the squad looking for some more game time in the green and gold is Billy Pollard, who last featured for the Wallabies in Perth taking on South Africa last month.
The Australia XV side boasts an even stronger cohort of Brumbies as nine representatives get the call up for their two matches in England.
Returning to the international arena through the side are Tom Hooper, Luke Reimer, and Andy Muirhead. Lachlan Lonergan will make his return from a long-term injury as he joins the squad alongside brother Ryan.
Rounding out Brumbies selections in the Australian XV side are Rory Scott, Rhys Van Nek, Ollie Sapsford and Corey Toole.
Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt said: “The squad has had a chance to regenerate over the last few weeks. At the same time, it was good to catch up with a wider group of players in the two-day training hubs we had in Canberra and Brisbane last week.”
“We have a relatively consistent group but will integrate a few new players on tour.
“Trying to balance opportunities for players, some recent squad members will get much needed game time with Australia XV, which also enables us to broaden our cohort of players in what will be highly competitive fixtures.”
Meanwhile the Brumbies Senior Assistant Coach and Australia XV head coach Rod Seib said: “To have 14 Wallabies as part of the group illustrates the depth that’s currently being created in Australian Rugby.”
“This tour represents a great opportunity for this group of players and staff to test themselves against two high-quality Northern Hemisphere opponents and is a challenge we’re all looking forward to.”
The Wallabies are set to play England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland in the 40th anniversary of the 1984 Grand Slam, where the side won all four Tests. Meanwhile the Australia XV squad will face off against the Bristol Bears and an England A side on November 8 and 17.
