Mark Nawaqanitawase's agent has confirmed there is no guarantee the code-hopping back will return to the Wallabies, with an international allegiance switch still on the table. Six Nations interest has come to light, keeping the door open for a shift away from Australian rugby union.

Joseph Suaalii has come out in support of a swift Wallabies return for his fellow back, but the decision is anything but certain. Nawaqanitawase, who made the switch from rugby league, is considering his next move as his international future remains unclear.
