Junior Wallabies Head Coach Jason Gilmore has further refined the Junior Wallabies squad, as the team begin to finalise their preparation ahead of the Oceania U20s Championship in April.

The week-long camp will run from this Sunday at the Australian Institute of Sport and Brumbies HQ.

The training squad for the second camp is bolstered by the inclusion of Trevor Hosea, Esei Ha’angana, who will link up with the squad following their Super Rugby commitments. 

Junior Wallabies Head Coach, Jason Gilmore said: “It's exciting to get the group together again.  We’re getting closer to the Oceania U20 Championship and every opportunity we have together as a group is important.  

"The staff including National High Performance Coach Advisor Stephen Larkham are looking forward to working with our playing group.

“Camp two will see a combination of units and team work across the week. The group is looking to build on camp one performances along with their performances in their respective clubs.

“We had our draw for the World Championship released the other day, and we’ll have some fierce opposition from sides that will be coming off their own Six Nations campaigns, so the hard work continues for our squad,” Gilmore said.

Josh Nasser, the son of 1991 Rugby World Cup winner Brendan Nasser is in the squad alongside Australian Men’s Sevens speedster Triston Reilly.
