TWO UNCAPPED REBELS IN SOUTH AFRICAN TOURING SQUAD
Two uncapped Rebels are in contention to make their debut during the Club’s tour of South Africa, after Head Coach Tony McGahan named his travelling party ahead of tomorrow’s departure.
Japanese international prop Keita Inagaki and winger Cam Crawford, a 2014 Super Rugby winner with the Waratahs, are rewarded for strong form in the Direct Connect Dewar Shield and are among the 27 players named.
They join the matchday 23 from Friday’s Round 14 match against the Reds in Brisbane, as well as Co-Captain Scott Fuglistaller and lock Sam Jeffries.
The Rebels play the Stormers in Cape Town (3:10am, Sunday 24th May AEST) and Sharks in Durban (3:10am, Saturday 30th May AEST) whilst in South Africa.
