Pacific Islanders Rugby

Piutau eager to play for a Pacific Islanders team

The 29-year-old full-back also loves the idea of resurrecting the Pacific touring team concept, which flickered briefly between 2004 and 2008 only to disappear prematurely.

“You’re talking about the best of Fiji, Samoa and Tonga, that would be some entertaining rugby. I’m sure everyone of Pacific Island heritage would love to be involved with a tour like that.”

Piutau, a member of the Pacific Rugby Players Welfare board, would certainly be among them.
