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.

Thanks Ed.
Go to commentsPerofeta came back and was available for the eoyt right? Or was that why Love was in the squad (but got injured in the last week)?
It was such a frustrating year. Perofeta looked a service stop gap until Jordan was fit, but then got injured. Plummer was selected because of Pero's injury and dmac shat the bed in the second half in Australia but Clarke (?) got himself binned at the 65 min mark so Plummer couldn't come on (at least with the risk adverse Razors thinking) when he was planned to.
So many other exciting opportunities that could have happened without injuries, but then theyre probably balanced by knowing Sititi probably wouldn't have been given a chance without multiple injuries happened.
