Cowra’s Col Jeffs has been named as a co-coach of the side.
The main game kicks off at 4pm following a number of junior clinics and curtain-raisers, including a blockbuster GrainCorp Cup North-South showdown.
More than 380 test caps and 1100 Super Rugby appearances, that’s the sort of experience the Classic Wallabies will boast when they line up against the Central West Barbarians.
The Classic Wallabies named their side for the clash on Monday morning, with the likes of recently-retired former skipper Stephen Moore, cult hero Radike Samo and 34-Test veteran Justin Harrison headlining a bumper squad.
Beau Robinson and Pat McCutcheon, Dubbo and Narromine juniors respectively, have also been named in the outfit as has Central West Rugby Union CEO Matt Tink and Orange City Lions junior James Grant.
The latter has actually been named in both sides, incredibly, with the Blue Bulls legends outfit also set to include Dubbo Roos’ skipper Shaun McHugh, former NSW Country Cockatoo Chris Plunkett and incumbent Central West coach Dean Oxley.
Orange Emus will be represented by Stu Brisbane, Mark Daley and Matt Greatbatch.
