PLAYER defections have become a hot topic in the game, so it’s nice to bring you some good news on an important retention for Australian rugby.
Nathan Charles is on the verge of re-signing with the ARU and Western Force in a deal that will keep him here until the end of 2016.
Charles, 25, has been a high-priority target for clubs in Europe because he carries a German passport, which allows him to be classed as a local and doesn’t count towards foreign quota.
But while the cash is appealing, Charles is strongly driven by his goal of playing in next year’s World Cup and beyond for the Wallabies.
Having made his Test debut last month, Charles is desperate to play more games in the gold jersey.
Charles told us in a text that it is “nice to have my future sorted”.
The only cystic fibrosis sufferer in the world who plays professional contact sport, Charles is an invaluable campaigner for the fight against the disease and in the process has become a shining light for Australian rugby.
