Adam Freier

Made a full time return to the Wallabies in 2007, playing in every Test match and opening his try scoring record at the 2007 Rugby World Cup.

Freier's 2006 representative career was cut short due to a foot injury in his first Test of the year, and between 2003 and 2006, Freier had played four Test matches, after making his debut in 2002.

2005 After starting in seven out of 12 matches for the Waratahs he made a return to Test rugby as a replacement in the Tri Nations match against New Zealand in Auckland.

2006 Celebrated his 50th Super Rugby cap and won the Mathew Burke Cup for Waratahs Player of the Year before earning selection in the Wallabies squad and starting the second Test against England at hooker. A foot injury suffered during the match curtailed his winter Test campaign.

2007 Captained the Waratahs on seven occasions after regular skipper Phil Waugh was injured during the early rounds. Played in every international Test for the Wallabies, and opened his try scoring senior international record, crossing the line against Japan and Canada at 2007 Rugby World Cup.
