Namosi rugby team fullback, Josateki Degei has signed a contract with the US based, Dallas Jackals for the 2021 Major League Rugby season.

The former Ratu Kadavulevu student represented Fiji in the U20s in 2017, winning the Oceania 7s and playing in the World Rugby U20 Trophy competition.

In 2017/2018 he played in the World Rugby Pacific Challenge and also during 2019/2020. In 2020 he was part of the Fijian Latui extended squad for the Global Rapid Rugby season, as well as for 2020 Swire Shipping Fijian Warriors.
