London Irish have announced the signing of Setaimata Sa from Catalan Dragons on a three-year deal.

Sa joined the Catalan Drgaons from Sydney Roosters in the NRL and has spent three seasons in Perpignan with the Drgaons.
Brian Smith, London Irish’s director of rugby said: “There’s no doubt about it, Setaimata is an exciting and wonderfully skilful player and we’re delighted that he will be joining the squad next season.
“I have followed his NRL and Super League career very closely and he was coached at the Roosters by my good friend and current New South Wales State of Origin coach, Richy Stuart.”
Setaimata Sa said: “I’m really excited about joining London Irish. Returning to rugby union is something that I have been considering for a while, it has always been in my blood and testing my skills in the Aviva Premiership will be the ultimate challenge.
“The style of rugby that the Exiles play and the family values of the Club suit me and my family well. I’m looking forward to getting down to it in the summer and I hope to be able to make an immediate positive impact.”
