After setting records in the traditional game, ex-Wallabies captain Michael Hooper is ready to complete the transition to rugby sevens in a bid to play for Australia at the Paris Olympics. Hooper has been picked in Australia’s 13-man squad for next month’s Hong Kong Sevens, the regular highlight of the sevens calendar. The 32-year-old flanker committed to the sevens program after missing selection for the Rugby World Cup squad last year, but his debut in the shortened format has been delayed because of ankle injuries.
The Wallabies will go up against the South African Springboks on August 17, a blockbuster game expected to generate millions of dollars for the local economy through interstate and international visitors.Â
