Turns out the Chief’s midfielder, Johnny Fa'auli’s red carded, no‑arms hit on the Hurricanes' Wes Goosen in last Friday's final‑round Super Rugby match in Hamilton, which earned him a six‑week ban, was his final act in Chiefs colours.
Stuff.co understands the 22‑year‑old won't be back at the franchise next season, and is instead headed for Japanese club Toshiba, on a two‑year contract.
Ironically, Fa'auli will miss the opening game of Toshiba's Top League season because it coincides with the last day of his six‑week ban – August 31.
The Hurricanes will host the Chiefs in their quarterfinal at 7.35pm Friday
