Former Premiership winger Namani Nadolo has announced his retirement from rugby at the end of the current season.
He wrote on Instagram: “2023 will be the year I call time on my “Rugby Career”. When I signed my first professional contract in 2008 I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would go on to experience this incredible journey.
“I’ve had a lot of highs and a lot of lows during my time. I’ve travelled the world from Japan, France, UK, and New Zealand.
“Moving home to Australia with my young family and an my aging legs I knew it was time to consider whats best for me and my future. It’s the question we all face as professional athletes, “what’s next”
As one chapter in my life comes to an end another begins.
“I wish to thank the NSW Waratahs for bringing me home, it was always my dream to retire on home soil in front of my friends and family.
“For now the season must go on, and I look forward to finishing this season with my amazing teammates. Thank you to everyone for all the support over the years, you are the reason why we do what we do, God Bless.”

Or check out the brief ranking below:
#6. France – 4.3
They Said: ” The French also score below-average rating for both Away Support and Home Stadium Atmosphere, the latter not helped by the fact you need a telescope (never mind a pair of binoculars) to see the pitch (never mind the action) from some of the seats at the Stade de France.”
#5. Italy – 4.4
They Said: “Like the French, they are let down by Away Support and, most impactfully, Home Stadium Atmosphere, which can often suffer from one-sided, processional performances on the pitch, although thankfully, these are becoming rarer occasions.”
