A powerful and skilful Prop who has grown into one of Fiji’s leading front rowers over the years. Tagi is in his 2nd season with Bayonne after leaving Provence in the Pro D2.
Bayonne bow out at the Semi Final stage of the 2025 Top 14 season after losing to Toulouse 25-32. The visitors although not quite dominating at any stage, kept in touch with the home side via the boot of fly-half Joris Segond who kicked 5 first half penalties. Ultimately however Toulouse had too much firepower.
Tagi started at Prop, was effective with ball in hand and did well in a scrum that struggled at times. Most the pressure was on his Loosehead Prop. Tagi ends the season with 21 games played, starting in more than half those matches.
Bayonne have qualified for their first ever Semi Final after beating Clermont 20-3. Tagi started at Prop for the home side who were stirred on by a bumper home crowd that despite the conditions, didn’t lose their voice or enthusiasm.
