Fiji-born former Wallabies Vice-captain, Samu Kerevi says it has been tough for him not to be able to leave the room and get some fresh air during quarantine. Kerevi finished his quarantine period at Novotel on Sydney Harbour last Wednesday.

He was playing in Japan with Top League side Suntory before the COVID-19 pandemic was declared and then decided to return to Australia and take on the mandatory 14-day quarantine period in Sydney.

Speaking on The Rugby Nation show, Kerevi says he returned to Australia to visit his family as he knows they are going through a hard time now due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Kerevi says playing in Japan is a bit different from playing in Australia as the professionalism of Japanese players and their rugby culture are a different experience altogether.

Kerevi signed a 3-year deal with the Suntory Sungoliath in Japan’s Top League.
