The Wallabies coaching staff have named 10 Safeguard Global ACT Brumbies players in their 36-player squad for the upcoming Tests against New Zealand as part of the Rugby Championship and Bledisloe Cup.

Wagga Wagga junior Corey Toole and inside centre David Feliuai are the only two uncapped players in what is a relatively consistent squad so far this year. 

The group will assemble in Sydney on Sunday ahead of the first Bledisloe Cup Test next Saturday afternoon at Accor Stadium before crossing the ditch for the return clash at Sky Stadium in Wellington the following week. 

Wallabies head coach Joe Schmidt said: “After getting a much-needed win in the first Test, then making a good start in the second Test, we had a very disappointing final 40 minutes in Argentina.”

“The upcoming Bledisloe Test in Sydney offers a great opportunity to turn that poor finish around in front of what looks like being another big home crowd.”
