Fijians Tamanisau and Saukuru back to beef-up Malaysia for Sri Lanka playoff


KUALA LUMPUR: The return of two naturalised players from Fiji is expected to provide a significant boost to the Malaysia Rugby 15’s squad as they prepare for their playoff match against Sri Lanka in the Asian Rugby Championship on April 19 in Colombo.

Malaysia Rugby have successfully brought back Samuela Tamanisau and Etonia Vaqa Saukuru, who were not part of the national squad last year. Their return to the team will bolster the Hibiscus’ chances, bringing much-needed relief to head coach Saizul Haffifi Mohd Noor.
