Suaalii confident he can make Wallabies squad
The Straits Times|September 13, 2024
Australian rugby's high-priced recruit Joseph Suaalii has not been paying much attention to the Wallabies' plight while finishing up with the Sydney Roosters but expects to be included on the season-ending tour of Europe with Joe Schmidt's team.
Suaalii confident he can make Wallabies squad

The 21-year-old said he had not watched the Wallabies' record 6727 defeat by Argentina in Santa Fe over the weekend while busy preparing for the Roosters' coming clash with the Penrith Panthers in the National Rugby League (NRL) play-offs.

"I know they went well in the first half. But I think the second half wasn't the best," he told Australian media.

Suaalii has played for the Roosters since 2021 and made his NRL debut after the league gave him an exemption to play before turning 18.
