'Ikale Tahi center Nafi Tuitavake has signed a two-year deal with South African Super Rugby club, The Bulls, in Pretoria.

The 30-year-old joins the Bulls after recently finishing a three year stint with the Northampton Saints in England’s Aviva Premiership. Tuitavake also made 20 appearances for the Canterbury Crusaders in 2014 Super Rugby season.

South African rugby clubs rarely recruit overseas players, with Tuitavake set to becoming the first Tongan player to wear the Bull’s jersey.
