Another All Black signs overseas deal
By Online Editors
Three-test lock/blindside flanker Jackson Hemopo has become the newest All Black to ink an offshore deal.
Japanese Top League club Mitsubishi Sagamihara Dynaboars has announced their signing of the abrasive 25-year-old on their Instagram account yesterday.
"That kept me in New Zealand so I think it's a good option for New Zealanders to go and try and something different, and if they've been there for a few years to come back refreshed and ready to go again," he said.
The Highlanders and New Zealand Rugby are yet to make an announcement on the signing.

Danie Gerber, Naas Botha, Ray Mordt, and DuPlessis, to name a few; what a team! I believe we could've won another World Cup with those boys playing in their prime.
