League One

A breakout season by Tupou playing in all 19 games and scoring 8 tries including a couple right off the top shelf.

His stats don’t lie either with 827 metres made from 166 carries, nearly 5 metres per carry. 685 post contact metres are probably his most impressive with 4 try assists and an 80% tackle completion rate.

Nathanael Tupou is confirmed as one of several players leaving the NEC Green Rockets. The 2nd year Centre battled injury in his first couple seasons as a Pro but finished off 2025 strongly with 6 appearances and 2 tries.

No new club has been confirmed.

Former Black Rhinos Number 8 Nathan Hughes is in the sights of Top 14 club Racing 92. The Parisian club is still reeling from a poor 2025 season which saw them finish 10th and at times during the season in real danger of relegation.

Racing already boast a host of Fijians including Josua Tuisova, Vinaya Habosi, Wame Naituvi and the incoming Selestino Ravutaumada.

Kerevi is confirmed as one of the players departing the Shokki Shuttles although no destination has been confirmed. The Hooker played his first season of League One rugby, featuring in 9 matches including their promotion/relegation games and scored his first career try.

Toshiba Brave Lupus returned to the winners circle, bouncing back from last weeks heavy defeat to put Urayasu to the sword 61-19. Tamanivalu started at Centre, up against Wallaby Samu Kerevi. The Flying Fijians representative scored 2 tries, the first when he beat 2 players to finish off a great move and the 2nd in the 82nd minute, in the right corner from close range. Most carries in the game with 16, made 108 metres, 3 offloads and 1 turnover.
