In addition to Le Roux Roets who was announced recently, Gibson announced on Monday the addition of Karmichael Hunt who joined the squad from the Queensland Reds.
Rounding out the squad is Adam Ashely-Cooper, who will officially start training next week with the NSW Waratahs, after finishing his commitments with Japan’s Kobe Steelers side.
The Tahs were back in full pre-season training on Monday, with the return of the Wallabies squad members.
Gibson said he is excited for the season ahead and the depth within the squad he now has.
“Our squad is now finalised with just over a month to go until our first home game against the Hurricanes on February 16 at Brookvale Oval,” Gibson said.
“One of the findings out of 2018 season review is that we played our best players too much and we needed to improve the depth of our squad.
“I believe the player mix we have provides that for us.
“It is great to be able to bring some of our younger players coming into the mix alongside some of the more experienced players, who can help bring through that next generation.
“We have our great young New South Wales talent coming through and training and playing with our senior NSW Waratahs players.”
Joining Miller in the 2019 Waratahs squad are Cameron Clark, Adam Ashley-Cooper, Kurtley Beale, Angus Bell, Jack Dempsey, Ben Donaldson, BJ Edwards, Damien Fitzpatrick, Lalakai Foketi, Israel Folau, John Folau, Bernard Foley, Jake Gordon Ned Hanigan, Will Harris, Will Harrison Jed Holloway, Michael Hooper, Karmichael Hunt, Harry Johnson-Holmes, Sekope Kepu, Tolu Latu, Mack Mason, Ryan McCauley, Alex Newsome, Rory O’Connor, Nick Phipps, James Ramm, Tom Robertson, Le Roux Roets, Curtis Rona, JP Sauni, Mitch Short, Rob Simmons, Hugh Sinclair, Tom Staniforth, Rory Suttor, Lachlan Swinton, Patrick Tafa, Chris Talakai, Andrew Tuala, Shambeckler Vui, Cody Walker, Michael Wells and Jeremy Williams.
