James Slipper signs again, eyes on Rugby World Cup 2023 arrival

Wallabies coach Dave Rennie has praised James Slipper's reliability and permanency as the veteran is once again committed to Australian rugby until at least the end of 2023. Rugby Fans can buy France Rugby World Cup Tickets from our website.

Slippers are quickly competing with Wallabies captain Michael Hooper as Australia's most capable player following his selfish appeal to stick with the Brumbies rather than pursue a profitable overseas contract.

"That's what's so great about Briefs. There are a lot of people who want to do business abroad, but he loves doing business in Brumbies, doing business with Wallabies and the opportunity to stay on Australian earth," Rennie said Tuesday.

"We got into it very quickly and it was a very attractive simple conversation."

Slipper is only 32 years old and has already passed 114 tests and is not far from George Gregan's record of 139 caps.

Slipper played 14 games for Australia in 2021 and could add another 15 this year if the Wallabies spring tour has five games.

If he stays fit and unharmed, nothing will stop Slipper from catching Gregan during the Rugby World Cup 2023 in France. He's a big man and then there's his work ethic, so, he's a little mean when he cleans up: he's great sensitively."

Slipper captained the Wallabies in their last game against Wales on the Northern Hemisphere Tour last year due to Hooper's foot injury.

He followed Hooper by four Test caps but wasn't too far behind the championship flank in the leadership duties. He is a real doer, but he speaks also very well. When he speaks, it is very concise. He makes sense," said Rennie.

Part of three Wallaby Rugby World Cup rosters (2011, 2015 and 2019), Slipper has the unique ability to play on both sides of the Scrum, making him a valued member of any team he plays for.

After nine seasons with the Queensland Reds, the 32-year-old joined Brumbies in late 2018 and has continued to improve and develop his game to become one of the mainstays of world rugby.

A valued player and leader between his peers, Slipper won the Super Rugby trophy with the Reds in 2011 before serving the Brumbies to the 2020 Super Rugby AU Championship.

“He is respected, people listen and he has made a huge contribution over the years, the Brumbies until the end of next year, I’m very excited to re-sign with Rugby Australia," said Slipper.
