This is the Australia roster in the men's rugby sevens tournament of the 2018 Commonwealth Games. The template is typically used in two articles: the article covering Australia at the 2018 Commonwealth Games, and the article covering the rosters of all participating teams of the tournament.

The following team was announced as the 2018 Commonwealth Games sevens team.[1] Captain Lewis Holland was originally announced as a team player, however, was excluded due to injury, and replaced by Brandon Quinn.[2] Replacement captain James Stannard was also ruled out after a skull fracture resulting from being attacked after a farewell dinner to departing coach Andy Friend.[3]
