Richmond welcomed Australia’s Rugby Union team, the Wallabies, to the ME Bank Centre today.

Ahead of their match against Wales at Etihad Stadium on Saturday, June 16, the entire Wallabies team visited Punt Road Oval to meet their fans, and some of Richmond’s stars.

A selection of Wallabies players, along with Tigers Chris Newman, Daniel Jackson, Trent Cotchin, Brett Deledio and Jake King, took part in cross-code skill tests, and signed autographs for the fans.

The players familiarised themselves with their opposite code’s ball, took some shots for goal and practiced a line-out.

Thanks to KooGa, apparel sponsor of both Richmond and the Wallabies, the players also took the opportunity to swap team guernseys.

Tickets are still on sale for the Australia v Wales test match this Saturday.  For more information, visit www.ticketmaster.com.au
