Incoming Wallabies coach Les Kiss insists Australian rugby can keep fledgling star Harry McLaughlin-Phillips for the long haul, despite his limited minutes in 2025. The 21-year-old has showcased an instinctive play style built on his running game, but has been stuck behind Test prospect Tom Lynagh at the Queensland Reds. Off contract at season’s end, McLaughlin-Phillips will get his fifth start of the Super Rugby campaign in the No.10 jumper for Saturday’s clash against the Brumbies, with Lynagh sidelined under concussion protocols. However, on three occasions coming off the bench he has played less than 10 minutes, while in the Reds’ round seven triumph of the Western Force he did not get on the field.
