Halfback Will Genia hasn’t missed a beat after rejoining the battle for the contentious Wallabies halves positions heading into next month’s Rugby World Cup.

Genia started Australia’s first Test of the year, but missed the last three following knee surgery and has only rejoined the squad for training this week.

He was one of two specialist halfbacks named in the World Cup squad along with Nick Phipps.

“He’s come back in from the rehab program now and hasn’t missed a beat,” Wallabies’ attack coach Stephen Larkham said of Genia.
