Lote Tuqiri says he is devastated after being dumped by the Australian Rugby Union - Sunday July 5, 04:28 AM
Lote Tuqiri (pictured in 2007) says he is devastated after being dumped by the Australian Rugby Union, a decision which effectively ended his chances of winning a World Cup with his teammates. The winger said he has been in a state of shock since being told by the ARU that they were terminating his lucrative five-year contract, due to expire in 2012 over a "standard employment matter".
