Lelia Masaga

30th Aug 1986 1.80m/94kg Left Wing

Masaga is one of the most entertaining players in the competition. The former All Black and Junior All Black is renowned for his try scoring prowess and celebrations. The winger plays his ITM Cup rugby for Bay of Plenty and was the top try scorer in the Under 21 Rugby World Cup in 2006.

Masaga, left the Chiefs in 2013 after having made 91 Super Rugby appearances, has been playing his rugby in Japan in recent seasons.

The Chiefs have announced the arrival of former wing Lelia Masaga, who returns to the side as a back-up option should injuries strike.

In May 2017, Glasgow Warriors announced the signing of Masaga for the 2017/18 season on a two-year deal.
