Australia Men’s 7s captain Nick Malouf has called time on his illustrious rugby career after announcing his retirement.

Malouf will go down as one of the greatest players in Sevens history after starring for Australia across his decade-long career.

He debuted in 2012 in Dubai and quickly became a star in the team as he went to three Olympic Games.

Malouf was also awarded the Shawn Mackay Medal in 2020 as Australian Sevens Player of the Year.

The Queenslander has captained the Australians at two Olympics, including at the most recent 2024 event in Paris, where they finished fourth.

Malouf also was at the helm when Australia claimed their maiden World Series title in 2021-2022.

He played 61 events for Australia during his extensive playing career, scoring 82 tries and 410 points.
