Joe Schmidt pulled Queensland revelation Tim Ryan aside for half-an-hour on Tuesday night to discuss his future, and revealed what was needed of the tearaway winger to make his Wallabies’ dreams a reality.
But despite finishing his maiden Super Rugby Pacific campaign with nine tries, he was unable to force his way into a shock Wallabies call-up, beaten by fellow rookie winger Darby Lancaster.Getty “I wouldn’t be averse to bringing him into a squad at all, I just think there’s a window where we can get some physical development into him, just so he’s better prepared,” Schmidt said of the 82-kilogram Ryan.“We’re trying to make sure that we have got players who are prepared before they come in. A lot of his game sense and a lot of his natural instinctive play is fantastic to watch already.
While Ryan will have to bide his time to garner a Wallabies jersey, Schmidt declared Reds five-eighth Tom Lynagh had been brought into camp for more than exposure, as he looms as a genuine option to guide Australian rugby’s revival mission.The 21-year-old piloted the Queensland Reds to fifth in his first full Super Rugby Pacific campaign, showcasing his long kicking game and composed decision-making under pressure.
