Waverley went undefeated in 2023 to win the CAS first XV premiership for the fourth time in seven seasons.

But just three regular starters return from last year's squad and while Director of Coaching Lachlan Drew-Morris is confident Waverley will be in the mix again, he's expecting a far tighter season in 2024.

Overview with Lachlan Drew-Morris: 

"We had about 10 boys play in the State Championships over the long weekend so at the moment we’re hoping we see all of them arrive at school on Tuesday fit and healthy,” Drew-Morris told Rugby News. 

“It’s great to see them playing rugby for their clubs though so we’ll just manage that this week.

“It’s been an interesting preseason with regards to the weather and everyone has had to adjust because of it. That’s probably going to continue throughout the season to be honest, so we know what we’re in for.
