Not disagreeing, but the premise of this one is around those who have come in during the '24 season as cover.
In the "2025 Squad - Speculation Thread" Burey is stated as 2025, so have relied on that.

Could well be mate, purely working off what I could find in all.rugby listing (2024 stated) and Wikipedia for Club (Academy listed).

Australia go down 25-36.
This is a match they could have won, they weren't...
