In rugby, transfers are never paused. As the fall tour approaches, rumors are accelerating for the following season. At the end of the season, Brive has many issues to resolve. The workforce will evolve with this situation of non-JIFF always to be monitored closely.
It is not only in the Top 14 that teams are starting to move to build their next squad. In Pro D2, this is activated even if there is always the uncertainty of knowing what the division of play will be. Brive reshuffled its squad during the last off-season but this should still be the case in the next one.
According to Rugby PrimeTevita Ratuva is interested in two Super Rugby franchises: Fijian Drua and Moana Pasifika.
Tevita Ratuva joined Brive in 2021 from Llanelli. The Fijian international 2nd line immediately found its feet in France, performing well at the CAB. A player who is both physical and offensively skillful, he had a very successful first season, establishing himself in the XV type. The second season will be more complicated with injuries and suspension. In Pro D2 last season, Ratuva found color again, especially during the return phase where he was essential in the starting team. This season, he is in the rotation on the 2nd line and he is placed in the number 4 position, which suits him better.
At the end of the contract at the end of the seasonthe one who will be 30 years old next May does not yet know what his future will hold. Obviously, his CV circulates in France and elsewhere. And it could well be that if he leaves Brive, his future will be written in Super Rugby. Two franchises would be interested: the Fijian Drua (where his brother played this year) and the Moana Pacifika. A way to come full circle and why not apply again for the national selection. It remains to be seen what the CAB intends to do with its 2nd Fijian line which remains an important part and would not be too much in the event of a return to the Top 14.
