The Wallabies former number eight Toutai Kefu is ‘highly likely’ Tonga’s new rugby union head coach, a reliable source who wished not to be identified told Kaniva News this evening.
We undertand the selection of Kefu was confirmed in a Tonga Rugby Union meeting this evening.
It is understood TRU and Kefu are in the final stage of their negotiation before signing the contract.
In 2011 Kefu was Tonga’s assistant coach in preparation for the 2011 Rugby World Cup.
Kefu is Tongan and he has won 60 caps playing at number eight for the Australian rugby union side.
Sometimes when a business is growing, it needs a little help.
Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
