The ACT Brumbies are excited to announce the signing of Ivania Wong for the 2026 Swyftx Super Rugby Women's season.
Wong joins the capital club from the Queensland Reds, after holding the distinction of playing in all 43 games since the Super Rugby Women’s competition kicked off in 2018 and becoming the Reds most capped Super W player. The signing represents a huge coup for the Brumbies Super W program, luring the Reds all-time leading try-scorer for the 2026 season.
Ivania moved from Rabaul in Papua New Guinea to Brisbane when she was just eight years old. After finding rugby, the dynamic winger quickly went from strength-to-strength. After a strong 2022 season, Wong was named 2022 Super Rugby Women’s Player of the Year and later that year made her Wallaroos debut against Fijiana, becoming Wallaroo number 183.
Collecting 8 test caps, the exciting outside back brings a wealth of high-level experience and a good dose of attacking power to a Brumbies side looking to improve this season. Wong’s dynamic skillset and winning mindset will be a significant asset to the Brumbies ahead of their 2026 Season.
On her move from the Reds, Ivania Wong stated, “I’ll always be a proud Queenslander and the great friendships I’ve made in the Reds jersey don’t change,”
“I’m very proud of that record as the most capped Reds player but the journey isn’t over. When you are in that many grand finals and fallen short, it definitely stays with you and makes you determined to win a championship."
“I’m excited for this next opportunity, embracing change in a new environment and unlocking a bit more of me that I still feel is left to give to Super Rugby.
“Any jersey I put on I’ll rep to the full. I’m going to give this next opportunity everything I’ve got.”
Brumbies Super W Head Coach James Erwin said,
“Ivania has had a massive impact on rugby, both with the Reds and Wallaroos, inspiring the next generation to pick up a footy. We know she will excite the Brumbies fans with the way she plays the game."
“We’re really pleased to bring Ivania into the program. Her consistency at Super W level speaks for itself, and she’ll add real quality to our backline.
“Beyond her on-field ability, Ivania brings a strong character that aligns with who we are as Brumbies, and we’re confident she’ll add a real injection in to the way we want to play this season.”
