    A superstar signing from the Blues


    They've signed Olympic gold medallist sevens star Tyla Nathan-Wong for the inaugural season of Super Rugby Aupiki.

    Nathan-Wong, nominated for national sevens player of the year this year, has been given a short term release from the Sevens squad to play.

    She says she is likely to slot in at either halfback or fullback.
