Whatever happened to Nemani Nadolo? The legendary Fijian winger hung up his boots last year, taking to social media in April 2023 to announce that he would be retiring at the end of the Super Rugby Pacific season after a globetrotting five-country, 15-year career.
At the time he was four games into his second stint at the New South Wales Waratahs having returned to Australia following a Gallagher Premiership title win with Steve Borthwick’s Leicester. And now? It was at the Hong Kong 10s the other week when RugbyPass caught up with the 36-year-old who had pitched up in the Far East with a smile on his face.
The place was once the making of him, his exploits 11 years ago piquing the interest of the Crusaders. He was in his 20s, trucking away in Japan after troubled stints in France and England when he previously featured at the invitational tournament, scoring the title-winning try with a length-of-field sprint.
