Reece Hodge (born 26 August 1994) is an Australian professional rugby union player who plays as a back. After playing his junior career primarily at fly-half,[4] Hodge initially played fullback and wing for the Rebels, and primarily played wing for Australia, before eventually moving to centre. In his most recent appearance for Australia (8 July 2023; South Africa) Hodge played at inside centre. Hodge currently plays for French club Bayonne in the Top 14 and the Australia national team. Hodge started his professional career in Super Rugby with the Melbourne Rebels, where he reached 100 appearances and became the team's most capped player before his departure in 2023.[5][6]
