The Gold Coast Titans have added Fijian Ben Nakubuwai to their impressive playing roster for 2017.
Nakubuwai who is similar to legendary Queensland and Kangaroos prop Petero Civoniceva, was first spotted by the Storm playing junior football in the Riverina and has been part of their development squad since his early teens.
The front‑rower has played 42 games for the Storm in the under‑20s competition for the past two seasons but has chosen to pursue his first grade career with the Titans.
Nakubuwai’s father Pio was a dual international for Fiji in rugby league and rugby union.
Nakubuwai played in Fiji’s 24‑22 loss to Papua New Guinea in May.
