The Western Force have pulled off a major recruiting coup, securing the signature of Argentinian international scrum-half Agustin Moyano for the upcoming Super Rugby Pacific season.
The 24-year-old playmaker arrives in Perth with impressive credentials, having represented the Argentine XV and gained valuable experience in both the French Top 14 and Super Rugby Americas competitions.
Adding International Flair to the Force
Moyano's signing represents a significant boost to the Force's playmaking stocks, adding genuine international quality to their halves department. His versatility allows him to cover both halfback and flyhalf positions, providing crucial depth and tactical options for head coach Simon Cron.
"Agustin is a talented young scrum-half who will add depth and competition to our squad," Cron confirmed. "He has good game management skills and brings a different style of play that will complement our existing players."
Proven Performer Across Continents
The Argentinian number nine comes with proven experience at the highest levels of club rugby. His time with Bayonne in France's elite Top 14 competition exposed him to northern hemisphere rugby, while his recent stint with the Dogos in Super Rugby Americas showcased his abilities in a southern hemisphere context.
This diverse background makes Moyano particularly valuable to the Force's campaign, bringing a blend of tactical kicking, crisp passing, and competitive spirit that should thrive in the fast-paced Super Rugby Pacific environment.
Bolstering the Force's 2024 Campaign
Moyano joins a Western Force squad looking to build on their recent progress and make a stronger push up the Super Rugby Pacific ladder. His arrival creates healthy competition for the starting scrum-half jersey alongside incumbent Nic White and young gun Henry Robertson.
With pre-season preparations ramping up, the Argentinian's integration into the squad will be crucial as the Force aim to start their 2024 campaign with renewed vigor and improved results.
