One of rugby 7s' biggest bamboozlers is moving to - surprise, surprise - a French powerhouse

As if Toulouse needed another flyer.

TOULON ARE SIGNING Clermont’s Napolioni Nalaga, Clermont are signing the Highlanders’ Waisake Naholo and now Toulouse have made their move, bringing the dazzling Semi Kunatani from the Fijian sevens team into their ranks.

The 24-year-old Kunatani has played his entire career in the shortened version of the game but Toulouse – who have the biggest budget in the Top 14 – have seen enough to hand him a two year deal, according to reports from French website Rugbyrama.

Kunatani possesses searing pace but has also shown signs of being a strong defender too – which you don’t see a whole lot of in sevens.
