Tuisamoa on the Move to France

US Eagle pool player Tai Tuisamoa is on the move to France as reports have confirmed that he has signed with Aurillac in the French Pro D2. The 34 year old Tuisamoa spent the 2014/2015 season with London Scottish, making 12 appearances and playing 543 minutes for the Exiles.

Tuisamoa, who was not in the USA’s Pacific Nations Cup squad, has six caps for the USA. With a number of versatile second rowers in camp with the USA, it is unlikely that Tuisamoa will make the US World Cup squad this season. Despite falling out of favor in the National team selections, the 6’4″, 260lb Tuisamoa remains in demand overseas. He joins an Aurillac squad that finished 6th in the Pro D2 last season with a 16-12-2 record.
