โThis role is a huge honour and even more so because I follow some great mates and leaders into the role, having watched Tate and Liam do a terrific job,โ said McReight, who became the Wallabiesโ 91st captain during a Rugby Championship clash with South Africa.
โThey showed me the path over the past four seasons, and hopefully Iโll now land on my path as a captain with all Iโve learnt about myself as a person and as a player.โ
