www.rugby.com.au, Tue Jan 23 – Led by new coach Aaron Mauger, the Dunedin-based side have agreed to stage a home game in Suva on June 30 against the Colin Cooper-coached Chiefs – who have played the Crusaders in Fiji in 2016 and 2017. Club chief Roger Clark says it is a sound sporting decision.
“We are aware of the large following Super Rugby enjoys in Fiji and we’re happy to have the chance to showcase our style of game in the islands,” Clark said. “Fiji has produced so many great players including our own Waisake Naholo – it will be great experience for him and all the players.” Fijian-born Naholo, a winger, has played 18 times for the All Blacks.
