Winger Wings Away: New Nest, New Quest

LeagueNews.co | Jason Patrick

Former Parramatta Eels winger Semi Radradra has signed with the Shizuoka Blue Revs in Japan's Rugby League One, marking his continued journey in the 15-man format.

Transitioning from rugby league to rugby union in 2017, Radradra has made a significant impact in both codes.

During his time with the Eels from 2013 to 2017, he scored 82 tries in 94 matches, cementing his status as a cult hero despite leaving the NRL while still in his prime.

Radradra, a four-time Fijian international, also played one match for the Australian Kangaroos in 2016, along with appearances for the World All Stars and the Prime Minister's XIII.

His combination of speed and size earned him the nickname "Semi Trailer," making him a formidable opponent on the field.

In a statement regarding his new club, he expressed enthusiasm: "It's an honour to be joining the Blue Revs next season.

Playing in the Japan League One has been a goal of mine, and I'm excited that I get to join a top club like Blue Revs."
