Dally Bird is a promising rugby player from Manly who has played the game all his life after his father played the game in Sydney.

The former Riverview First XV captain was picked up by former Aussie 7s coach John Manenti after Bird's time with the NSW Waratahs Academy came to an end.

He was one of the standout rookies on the World Series in 2022-23 and although he played limited Rugby during the 2024 Olympic year due to injuries he is a vital member of the team.
