With James Lancaster stepping away from the U16s NZ Tour 2026 campaign due to work commitments, and Jackson Popata currently limited through injury, we’re excited to announce that our Founder and Director of Rugby, Masi Tusitala, will take the reins as Head Coach.

A leader who has helped build Melbourne Brothers Rugby Academy from the ground up, Masi brings passion, experience, and a deep commitment to developing our young men on and off the field.

🏉 THROWBACK 2019 🏉

THE ORIGINAL BROTHERS ✊🏽

We took a punt.
25 spots opened up for players across Victoria to travel to Canberra and battle through 2 games in 3 days.

What started as an opportunity quickly became a movement.

Through connections with powerhouse clubs — Tuggeranong Vikings and Gungahlin Eagles — we saw firsthand that Melbourne’s talent pool was a sleeping giant ready to rise.

To the 2019 Brothers Squad — thank you for paving the way and igniting the passion to continue creating opportunities for players across Melbourne.

Now, 7 years on and 8 tours deep, the journey continues.
The future is bright for the Melbourne Brothers Rugby Academy. 🔥💙
