Former Wallaby captain Stirling Mortlock is planning a comeback with the Melbourne Rebels in next year's Super 15 Rugby that will see him regain his place in the Wallaby team for the Rugby World Cup.
Thirty-two year old Mortlock had surgery in May which ruled him out of Wallaby selection this year and he will only make his return in February when the Super15 Rugby tournament kicks off.
"The injury's going really well and that's where I'm focused at the moment," he told AAP on Tuesday.
"That's going really well and the next port of call for me will be to get training ... and down the track we'll see." Mortlock said he's back running and hoped to be able to start full training by the start of December.
"I definitely want to give myself some good lead-in time to the trials next year and be part of those," he said.
