Toulouse call in Tongan reinforcement
With the absence of South African prop Schalk Ferreira Toulouse have called o the services of Tongan international Kisi Pulu.
Ferreira was ruled out for more than five months after he ruptured a bicep tendon in his team's pre-season friendly victory over Biarritz.
There was further bad news for the four-time European champions after that match with French captain Thierry Dusautoir set to miss the opening three games of the Top 14 with a thigh injury
Pulu, 35, had been training with second-tier Narbonne since Perpignan released him along with a whole host of players after they were relegated last season.
Pulu, who won the Top 14 title with Perpignan, will fill in for Ferreira.
Toulouse, who failed to win a trophy last term, began their Top 14 campaign with a 20-19 win over Oyonnax on Saturday.
