Sinoti Sinoti pens new deal with Newcastle Falcons

Samoa wing Sinoti Sinoti has penned a new deal with Gallagher Premiership club Newcastle Falcons.

Sinoti, who has played for Toulon, Castres, Zebre and Wellington joined Newcastle Falcons during the 2013/14 season and has played 72 games in the Premiership since then in which he scored 16 tries.

“My family and I have made Newcastle our home, we love it up here and it’s great that I’ve been able to extend with the Falcons," said the 33-year-old.

“The supporters here have been awesome with me right from day one, the lads and the coaching staff make it a fantastic environment and I see only good things for the club.

“Yeah, we’ve had a tough time over the past couple of months, but I wouldn’t be signing again with the club if I didn’t have absolute full confidence that we’ve got what it takes to lift ourselves back up.”

Newcastle Falcons director of rugby Dean Richards was pleased with the news of Sinoti's decision to extend the stay at the Kingston Park.

“Sinoti is one of the most exciting attacking talents in the Gallagher Premiership, if not Europe, and it’s another boost to the club that he sees his future here.

“You can’t fail but enjoy his approach to the game, he puts bums on seats and more importantly he puts fear into opposition defences.

“On the back of the news that Mark Wilson and John Hardie have also signed contract extensions over the past couple of weeks it just goes to show that we are continuing to build as a club, despite the ongoing challenge of improving our league position.”
