Apologies, Melbourne Rebels latest squad list for the Melbourne Rising listed his name as 'Billy'[1] and have seen him named as that on twitter and other sources, maybe a recent change, but will wait for longer to see if it becomes more commonly used, his personal twitter account[2] states him as 'Billy' though as well. -- Harriesss (talk) 18:45, 26 August 2018 (BST)
