Exciting Chiefs utility Tim Nanai‑Williams is in line to play for Samoa against the All Blacks, and at the Rugby World Cup.

He is part of a 58‑man wider training group named by the Samoa selectors to prepare for a busy year.

The squad will be cut to 38 in June to prepare for the historic July 8 test against the All Blacks in Apia.

Nanai‑Williams, a former New Zealand sevens and schoolboys representative, has already made a solid start to his quest to represent Samoa at the Olympics next year.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs will play the Rebels at 9.40pm this Saturday in the Super Rugby.
