Suaalii keen for swift Wallabies return of Marky Mark

Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii has lauded the skills of his former Roosters teammate Mark Nawaqanitawase and said he hopes the flyer will rejoin the Wallabies as early as next month on the spring tour. However, that prospect remains up in the air. Wallabies coach Les Kiss and Nawaqanitawase are yet to discuss plans, and talks are also ongoing between Rugby Australia and the winger’s new Japanese club, Panasonic Saitama Wild Knights. Nawaqanitawase is contracted with the Roosters until the end of the month but switches back to rugby next month on a two-season, $3 million deal with Panasonic.
