Rugby League players who could have/could make the switch

I initially thought that the eels would get him back this time next year but I can't see Toulon letting him go now. Just a pure, pure rugby player

He will be a star come the RWC and league will never get him back.

Has anyone seen the highlights going around of Semi Radardra playing for Toulon? He's got an incredible fend and just runs over people like Rene Ranger used to in his hay day. Don't think we need to go after him with the talent we've got like Koroibete, Hodge etc. but he's the sort of guy who puts bums on seats.

He's 25, and was born and lived in Fiji until at least 18. My money is he never got Aussie citizenship and effectively reset his national qualification when he moved out of Aus anyway.

With France's new (but very loose) selection policy, we'll probably see him sport a Fiji jersey at the WC.

Semi's Fiji 7s capped though isn't he? Not any point full stop.

Didn't know this. Between the 4 or 5 test level blokes the Drua will blood, and the rise of talented, engaged Fijian internationals in Europe (across a number of positions), Fiji would like decent chances to knock Wales/Georgia off and make the Finals at the WC.

Wales have real identity issues right now, but 2 years to sort it out.

I think it’s mentioned earlier in this thread, but he is already capped for Fiji in 7s, which brings me to my second point, Radradra was a union player before he went to league, of course he can play the game.

Hey mate, I did acknowledge this in another comment (actually the one before yours).

They probably don't have the money to compete with Japanese clubs but the Waratahs are desperate for someone who can score tries next year. Perhaps they'll put in an offer.
