Fijian powerhouse Nemani Nadolo has revealed that the most memorable moment of his rugby career was having his mother fly over to watch him play for the Leicester Tigers.

Speaking to World Rugby, Nadolo says having his mother in the crowd outweighs all the other good memories he has had in his career.

He says he will always remember scoring the first try for Fiji against England in the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

The Namatakula native says he felt like a kid when he joined Crusaders in 2013, where he met players that he only watched on TV.

The 34-year-old will be joining his previous club, the Waratahs for the 2023 Shop N Save Super Rugby that begins on the 24th of February next year.
