« We’re not going to pressure Reece by making big statements about his game, but we’re going to give him all the directions to make sure his game is ready for the start of 2022. »
« We want him to work hard and train hard and he will be one e have a great career ahead of them. «
» Reece is a talented young player with a lot of potential and we are disappointed to lose him, « said Monaghan.

« We wish Reece all the best and look forward to seeing him through with us this year. »
Tuivasa has signed a two-year deal with Super Rugby Club Auckland Blues, slated to begin in 2022.
