Mark Nawaqanitawase's agent has stated there is no assurance the code-hopping back will return to the Wallabies, with an international allegiance switch very much in play. Six Nations interest has surfaced, keeping the door open for a departure from Australian rugby union.

Joseph Suaalii has openly supported a swift Wallabies return for his fellow back, but the decision is still very much up in the air. Nawaqanitawase, who crossed from the Sydney Roosters to rugby union, is considering his next move as his international future remains unclear.
