  • Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii eased worries about his fitness on Wednesday and said he would be raring to go for the New South Wales Waratahs when they play their Super Rugby Pacific season-opener next week.

Joseph Suaalii, a 20-year-old rugby league star from the Sydney Roosters, is set to make his Super Rugby debut with the New South Wales Waratahs in 2025, marking a significant transition from rugby league to rugby union. His move has been described as a "gamechanger" for Australian rugby, with expectations high due to his athletic prowess and potential to excel in the 15-man code. Suaalii, who has already represented the Australian rugby league team, has signed a lucrative deal with Rugby Australia, aiming to bolster the Wallabies' squad for the 2027 Rugby World Cup. His debut is anticipated to bring a new level of excitement and attention to Super Rugby, with his skills and physicality expected to translate well into the union game.
