Lote Tuqiri, Rico Gear and Caleb Ralph will join George Smith as guest speakers at the 2019 Byron Bay 7s All-Stars lunch on Friday October 18.
The announcement confirms the event as a truly all-star occasion, with two Wallabies greats and two All Blacks greats sure to entertain a packed house at Club Byron.
Tuqiri is a dual international, representing Australia in both rugby league and rugby union, amassing 67 test appearances for the Wallabies between 2003-2009, including two Rugby World Cups (03,07).
Rico Gear has 20 appearances to his name for the All Blacks between 2004-2007, along with a Commonwealth Games gold medal with New Zealand 7s in 1998.
Caleb Ralph made 14 appearances for the All Blacks between 1998-2003 and, like Gear, earned a gold medal at the 1998 Commonwealth Games. He holds the record for most consecutive Super Rugy appearances, at 104 back-to-back matches for the Crusaders.
The four international rugby legends will take the field in the Byron Bay 7s along with a host of other stars to be announced in the lead up to the event.
Tickets for the All-Stars Lunch are now on sale, with both individual tickets available, or groups of 8 on a table, making this a perfect opportunity for local businesses to bring staff or clients along to an entertaining day-time event.
