Super Rugby: Halfback Moses Sorovi extends his stay with the Queensland Reds

The Queensland Reds have re-signed talented halfback Moses Sorovi as well as emerging trio Josh Nasser, Tuaina Taii Tualima and Ryan Smith.

Queensland halfback Moses Sorovi has extended his stay with the Reds by a further year.

Sorovi debuted in Super Rugby in 2017 and has made 31 appearances for the Reds.

The 24-year-old, who hails from Yam Island in the Torres Strait, represented the Queensland and Australian Schoolboy teams in 2013 and was part of Brisbane City’s NRC title-winning team in 2015.

“We’re really pleased where Moses is at and we’re pleased he’s staying on for another year,” Reds coach Brad Thorn said.

The Reds also re-signed fringe forward trio Josh Nasser, Tuaina Taii Tualima and Ryan Smith on two-year deals.

“It’s really good to see some consistency with our players wanting to remain here and play footy with their mates,” Thorn said.

“Josh and Tuaina both made their Queensland debuts this year. Josh has come through as a developing tighthead prop but has moved into the hooker position and has made good progress.

“Tuaina is a versatile backrower/lock and has shown strong contributions during Super Rugby AU. We’re looking for him to take it to the next level in our program.

“Ryan is a good team man. With his height, size and raw ability, he has the potential to make an impact in Super Rugby.”
