Former All Black midfielder Richard Kahui has made a surprise return to Super Rugby.

The 35-year-old Rugby World Cup winner has signed a deal with the Western Force in the Super Rugby AU competition, following seven years in Japan’s Top League.

Kahui has been playing for the Toshiba Brave Lupus club in Japan and has made 63 appearances in the Top League since joining in 2013.

He was a standout on the wing during the All Blacks’ successful 2011 Rugby World Cup campaign, although he made his name as a midfielder for the Chiefs.
