      The end of a sorry saga. Based on what I’ve seen I’m not expecting too much at ASM. Definitely not another Fritz Lee IMHO.

        It seems he's giving up on the black jersey way too easily/quickly. I can't help thinking there's more to the Pita Gus story that we don't know.

          It has been mentioned that he had some off field issues. Seems a shame and now he can't play for Fiji or anyone else

                            @Bovidae 4 games, vs full year employment.

                            Much higher level athletes.

                            Can't say many would choose women's super other than lifestyle reasons.

                                These never ending departures will surely be having a big effect on club rugby here in NZ this coming season, particularly in the front row where reasonable props were hard enough to come by even before this mass exodus gathered steam.

                                  @Higgins Yep, the departure of the better players is diminishing our Super depth and will make it difficult to find replacements when injury strikes, and the departure of all players is bad for club rugby. But if they get paid somewhere else for playing rugby and they get the opportunity to see other parts of the world, then it makes totally sense from a player's point of view.

                                    You would hope that once the competition is well established that they have a limit on the number of foreign players match day squad.

                                        I can not see why they would want to sign a almost 36 year old BB in 2025.
