Nalaga signs three-year contract to return to former club

NAPOLIONI Nalaga will be heading back to France after the completion of the 2012 Super Rugby season in July.
According to a report in French daily, L'Equipe, the robust winger has signed a new three-season deal with his former club, Clermont.
The rugbynews.fr website reports Nalaga is feeling indebted to the French club after breaching his contract with Clermont last year, which resulted in his termination.
The Nadroga man has since been trying to revive his once colourful career and was included in the Flying Fijians team for the 2011 Rugby World Cup in New Zealand.
Nalaga was recruited by Australian franchise, Western Force for this year's Super Rugby competition.
However, he failed to impress after suffering injury in the early rounds of the competition.
"I do not see myself playing elsewhere other than at Clermont in France. So I chose a club outside of France, who had just about the same weather as Fiji," Nalaga told L'Equipe.
"I have played only three games since the start of the (Super Rugby) season. I am recovering (from) just a sprained ankle. But I'm not very happy with my debut."
Nalaga has reportedly apologised to his fans in France and assured them of the form that once took the T14 by storm.
how good is this tune.. see ya Nala... you've been useless and another waste of marque player....
from the twitter world & RG.
2 weeks ago "WA Dominance, great to be in perth with succesfully clubs"
tonight "come on hawks, well done, but failed at the last hurdle"....
already this zebra has changed his stripes for spots..
My Two Bobs worth.
How about he performs this week or his contract is canned and he can piss off back to France and his fans. We need to dispense with the marquee player and concentrate on building our team with young talent sourced from Australia.
Coach and train these youngsters so that one day they will not only be Force players but may go on to represent our nation.

He can't perform without the ball. RG's brilliant game plans to bore the opposition into error didn't work. The French move the ball to his wing and get him involved.
Injuries happen in high contact sport. That is a risk every time a player goes into a contact situation.
Up front there oughta be a man in black
You'll never see bright colours on my back......
Until things are brighter, I'm the man in black
Yes he has now removed that line from his page! http://about.me/RichardGraham15
How quick to move on...
Two faced lying toss pot!!
Always thought he was a numbskull imbecilic moron from day one, aghast when appointed without due process.
Cringed whenever I heard him speak - shallow, gormless but media savvy.

WTF.......the Force must stop signing marquee players that are wingers.
Hasn't anyone in the ARU or from the Australian Super teams learn't from the shambles of recruiting Sailor, Tuqiri, Rogers and co, .....wingers are only players that hang around with footballers. Forget David Smith!
Fore have to sign a marquee player/s at 9, 10 or 12!!!!!
Where is the general......................
