Brumbies speedster bolts into Wallabies squad as big names miss out
@Source: brisbanetimes.com.au
Brumbies speedster Corey Toole and Canberra-raised Force hardman Nick Champion de Crespigny have been named as two bolters in a 36-man Wallabies squad named by Joe Schmidt ahead of the British and Irish Lions series next month. After surveying his options through the Super Rugby Pacific season, Schmidt took the covers off his first Wallabies squad of the year, which was named to prepare a Test against Fiji on July 6 but will ostensibly be the Test squad for the three-Test series against the Lions thereafter. The story of the squad is one of consistency, with Schmidt turning mostly to the troops who played for the Wallabies last year. But there were interesting new names on the list, and a handful of unlucky candidates left off it.
