Chiefs' Tongan back-row signs for Harlequins

Premiership champions Harlequins have announced the signing of Tongan international back-row Viliami Taulani from Super Rugby outfit the Chiefs.

Taulani to the Harlequins

I was hoping he would sign for Moana and continue to play for Counties.

Shame to see Sanders go. He was a rare thing - an underrated Crusaders loosie

[Stargazer]

@duluth Yeah, his great performance in the North v South match was a good example of how good he was. If he hadn't had so many injuries along the way, who knows what could have been ...?

Great opportunity for a great coach, but he should have been signed by a NZ franchise. Now he's off to Oz ...

The ambitious Western Force Super Rugby Pacific team have appointed a second Kiwi assistant-coach with former Māori All Black Paul Tito joining Hawke's Bay coach Mark Ozich in Perth.

Both men have been lured to Western Australia by the Force's chief executive Tony Lewis, who hailed them as "fantastic additions'' to the coaching staff.

Tito will be forwards coach while Ozich, who led Hawke's Bay to Ranfurly Shield glory during a successful five-year spell with the Magpies, will work as attack coach.

[Stargazer]

@bovidae They'll be the 7th Kiwi, but Oz based, franchise soon.
