Their other pool matches are against the USA in York on August 30 and England in Brighton on September 6.
However, it's important to note that there are no publicly available details about the complete roster and schedule for Australia’s rugby sevens team for this specific tournament in England. The search results mainly focus on other rugby events, such as the 2025 Kangaroo tour of England and France involving the Australia national rugby league team, the 2025 British & Irish Lions rugby union tours, and the 2025 Rugby Championship rosters and player eligibility rules.
For more information on specific rugby sevens events or other formats like rugby league or rugby union 15s, please specify your query, and I can help refine the search or provide related details.
In the context of upcoming international sports events, the United States football team is absent from the given tournament, yet it's a dominant force in American culture, especially when it comes to sports.
