Crusaders fans should not question Nemani Nadolo’s credentials just because he is not in the starting lineup for his club in Japan.

These are the words of Nadolo’s Japan based NEC club coach Greg Cooper.

Last week the Crusaders announced the signing of the big Flying Fijian center allowing him to play in next year’s Super Rugby competition.

After revealing the massive Nadolo, who stands at 1.95m and weighs around 130kg, had joined the Crusaders, head coach Todd Blackadder was enthusiastic about the intimidation factor he would bring to his backline.

Nadolo will start at center for the Flying Fijians tomorrow at 4am against Portugal.

In other test matches tomorrow, England hosts Argentina at 3.30am, Wales plays South Africa at 6.30am while Ireland faces Samoa at 6.45am and France hosts the All Blacks at 9am.
