Nick Phipps Career

Rugby playing career

In July 2010, Phipps was signed to the Melbourne Rebels. Sam Cordingley, a former Wallaby halfback, was one of Phipps mentors for the 2011 Super Rugby season. Phipps said he was looking forward to learning from his fellow halfbacks, Cordingley, and Kingi, as well as Rebels centre (and former Wallaby) Julian Huxley.

Phipps played for South Africa in May 2012, when he mixed with Kurtley Beale in the halves (9 & 10) against the Bulls from South Africa. Following Danny Cipriani's surprise departure from the Rebels, Beale had been promoted from fullback to flyhalf. Phipps got a try under the posts.

Phipps returned to Sydney to play for the Waratahs, which began in 2014.

"Nick has played a significant role in laying the foundations of this Club," Rebels coach Damien Hill said, and it's sad to see him depart. In everything he does, he imitates our team spirit, both on and off the rugby field."

In January 2017, the Wallabies and Waratahs scrum half agreed to a two-year contract extension that will keep Phipps and Waratahs as a full season. He earned his 100th super rugby cap in March 2017.

Phipps will travel to England on February 1st to join London Irish in the English Premiership ahead of the 2019-20 season.

Jim, his grandfather and great uncle, who were both named Jim, starred for the Wallabies. Phipps made his international debut in the 2009 IRB Sevens World Series, reflecting the rich family tradition in rugby.

At the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi, Phipps competed in the Australian Sevens. In his Games' debut, he scored a try and kicked eight conversions. Australia went on to win Silver, but New Zealand defeated New Zealand in the final.

Phipps spent time in late 2010 with the Wallabies and was named on the bench against the Leicester Tigers. Phipps was one of three halfbacks selected for the Wallabies in the 2011 Rugby World Cup in August. When the Wallabies defeated Russia, Phipps played 26 minutes. He was one of three Rebels to play in the tournament, the others being new signings James O'Connor and Kurtley Beale. Since his first appearance in the green and gold, he has continued his international career playing and appearing in the bench often.

In the third deciding test against Ireland, Phipps took his first home soil for the Wallabies.

Phipps has been playing in 64 Tests for the Wallabies since winning the 2011 World Cup in New Zealand, beginning at the start of the season in 2010.
