The Waratahs have made a big move ahead of the arrival of the highly-touted teen sensation Joseph Suaalii, signing veteran Wallabies backrower Pete Jorgensen.
Jorgensen, who has been capped 12 times for the Wallabies, will bring a wealth of experience to the Waratahs’ backrow. He has played for the Brumbies, Reds and Rebels in Super Rugby, as well as stints with the Western Force and Melbourne Rebels in the NRC.
The signing of Jorgensen is a smart move by the Waratahs, as he will provide a valuable mentor role for Suaalii when he arrives. Suaalii is one of the most talked-about young players in Australian rugby, and his arrival at the Waratahs will be eagerly anticipated.
Jorgensen has been in good form this season in the NRC, and his experience will be invaluable to the Waratahs. He is a strong ball carrier and a hard-working defender, and his leadership skills will be a great asset to the team.
The signing of Jorgensen is a shrewd move by the Waratahs, as they look to build a strong squad ahead of Suaalii’s arrival. With Jorgensen in the backrow, the Waratahs will have a formidable combination of youth and experience.
The Waratahs have made a statement with this signing, and it will be exciting to see how Jorgensen and Suaalii combine when they take the field together. It could be a match made in heaven for the Waratahs, as they look to make their mark in Super Rugby.
