Suliasi Vunivalu will not be part of the Reds 2025 Super Rugby Pacific squad.

Vunivalu’s high-profile code switch from rugby league’s Melbourne Storm, with whom he won two NRL titles, drew plenty of eyes back in 2021.

However, the Fijian-born flyer never quite found his feet in the 15-a-side game, battling injury and form slumps in a competitive Reds outside backs unit further bolstered by off-season signings.
