Joesva is a powerful forward from Fiji who brings size and versatility to the Highlanders forward pack. Comfortable at both lock and the back row, Tamani brings a blend of physicality and mobility that is synonymous with the Fijian style of rugby.  

The towering forward is experienced at test level with Fiji and has over 30 caps at the Super Rugby Pacific level.  

Tamani is well known within the Highlanders region having played for Otago in the 2025 and 2026 seasons at a high level earning him his Highlanders contract for 2027 and 2028.
