“I’m staying in New Zealand”, French third row Patrick Tuifua has made his choice

The 20-year-old French third row, born in New Caledonia, lives in New Zealand. Lindisfarne College in Hasting offered him a scholarship at the age of 15 to study and play rugby. He then shone in the NPC Championship under the colors of Hawke's Bay Magpies. Which today gives him the opportunity to take a new step with this contract, only for the preseason, with the Hurricanes.
