Rugby career

A centre, Wells was an Emerging Wallabies player and made the extended Wallabies squad for the 1991 Rugby World Cup, before the list got trimmed.[1] He was recruited by the ACT Brumbies on the back of a strong 1998 Shute Shield season with Northern Suburbs, which he had helped to a rare grand final appearance.[2] In 1999, Wells featured twice for the Brumbies during their Super 12 campaign and finished the year with a stint at New Zealand provincial team Southland.[3] His professional career was limited by recurring injuries.[4]

Criminal conviction

Wells received a six-year prison sentence in 2017 for the aggravated rape of a 14-year-old girl.[5][6]
