Why All Black's move to Clermont makes sense

Clermont recently secured the signature of Chiefs star Tim Nanai-Williams earlier this month, and are looking to make another coup with the Moala signing.

The 27-year-old outside back debuted for the All Blacks in 2015 against Samoa but seems to be on the outside of the next generation of midfielders.

Jack Goodhue, Anton Lienert-Brown, and Ngani Laumape all made regular appearances for the All Blacks in 2017, while the first-choice pairing of Sonny Bill Williams and Ryan Crotty have established themselves as the All Blacks preferred selections.

With indications Rieko Ioane wants to play centre long-term for the Blues, the move makes sense for Moala, with Matt Duffie, Melani Nanai and uncapped Caleb Clarke all pushing for the wing spots.
