With the 2015 Super Rugby season to kick off February next year, a total of eight Fijian players will be featuring for their respective teams in the Australian and New Zealand franchises.

A lot of excitement has been said about new Chiefs recruit Seta Tamanivalu who has the ability to explode on to the scene next year in the same way Malakai Fekitoa did this year.

The newly crowned ITM Cup Player of the Year, Tamanivalu will have his first crack at Super Rugby next year but will have to work hard to earn a spot in the Chiefs loaded midfield.

Tamanivalu is expected to replicate some of the form he showed for Taranaki in the national provincial premiership and is expected to pair up with star Sonny Bill Williams.

Meanwhile, other players who are expected to shine next year include Waratahs wing Taqele Naiyaravoro, Jone Macilai and the sensational Nemani Nadolo for the Crusaders, Samu Kerevi for the Queensland Reds, Tevita Kuridrani and Henry Speight for the Brumbies and Patrick Orsborne for the young Highlanders side.

The Super Rugby will kick off February 13th with the Crusaders taking on Rebels at Christchurch.
