Anaru Rangi signs with Force

The Western Force today announced the signing of local player Anaru Rangi for the 2017 Super Rugby season.

The 27-year-old had a remarkable 2016, from working as a scaffolder and playing for local Pindan Premier Grade team Nedlands on the weekend, to being injected into the Force squad in April and then going on to make his Super Rugby debut against the Bulls in Round 10 at the ‘Force Field’ nib Stadium.

The Wellington-born front rower went on to play a further four games for the club, bringing an intensity and physicality that saw him gain the respect of his fellow teammates.
