Fiji Airways Flying Fijians scrum half, Frank Lomani has signed a two‑year deal with the Melbourne Rebels that will see him through until the end of 2021.
Lomani says signing a contract with the Melbourne Rebels is a dream come true for him.
He says he has played against many of the Rebels players before but to line up alongside with them in one of toughest club competition in the world will be a special moment for him.
Melbourne Rebels General Manager Professional Rugby and Pathways, Nick Ryan says Lomani’s domination for the Drua in the National Rugby Championship last year was superb and they have been keeping an eye on him since then.
Ryan says they had invited Lomani for a trial last season, and after seeing him on the field they are confident he would be a great addition to their squad.
He says their coaching staff is excited to continue Lomani’s development and they will be looking forward to seeing him in the squad in 2020.
The international halfback was crowned the 2018 NRC Player of the Year after guiding the Fijian Drua to last year’s NRC title.
