Let’s give Eddie Jones some credit – Japan were good
The Brave Blossoms will always have to blend Japanese players and non-Japanese born players in Test rugby, but the performance in Tokyo had a strong identity.

Don't expect to Scott Sio in a Wallabies jersey again, he has made the jump to Samoa:

disappointed but kinda love it
Brumby Runner
George Gregan (70)
Shouldn't stop the Brumbies having an interest if he's available for 2026.

He won't be, he's currently contracted to Exeter for the current season that ends June 2026. Deals can always be done, but the only way I can see that happening is for a Wallaby qualified player that RA are interested in, otherwise the money just won't be there.

19 games, 14 tries in Q Cup is a good season when learning.
I think he could be a good Fullback in Rugby and seems a late developer play wise. With a few new NRL sides coming in guys like this will be filling out the squads.

No source on the release or destination mentioned though.
Seems to have been tried in the halves too.

Probably works enough at State Cup level but once in the NRL the halves really need an astute kicking game or the career is a flash in the pan once the know you only run or kick it long.
Feels similar to Super Rugby Centres going back to Club land and being able to play 10 to a good enough level like Walton has done for Gordon in SS.
Hard part at Fullback is the organising of the defence in League and on the Wing these days you have to be prepared to take a shit ton of tough carries. I'd love to see him in a settled side in Rugby.

"In the back row, Lachlan Swinton will also not be staying in Bordeaux. Injured for several months, the Australian had a promising start to his French adventure, but his performance gradually declined"
