    Tupou Vaa'i is refusing to slow down as the test calendar draws to a close for 2024


    The All Blacks lock has played in 12 of the 13 tests to date this year including taking on senior lock responsibilities mid-season when Scott Barrett was injured.

    While it's been a big workload, Vaa'i says he's ready for the Italians in Turin on Sunday morning.



    The All Blacks side to face Italy in Turin will be named on Friday.
