[edit | edit source]

Porecki made one brief appearance off the bench for Waratahs against Cheetahs during the 2015 Super Rugby season.[2] He joined Saracens as cover during the 2015 Rugby World Cup.[3] Porecki was eligible to represent England as his mother is from that country. He is also of polish descent.[4] In 2016 he left Saracens to join London Irish and in his first season at the club was part of the side that defeated Yorkshire Carnegie in the RFU Championship play-off final to win promotion back to the Premiership.[5][6]

In July 2020 it was confirmed that Porecki would return to the Waratahs for their Super Rugby campaign.[7][8]
