Wellington — Former All Blacks and Fiji wing Joeli Vidiri has died aged 48, his Super Rugby franchise Auckland Blues announced Friday.
His death came less than 24 hours after the death of another former All Black and Blues winger Va'aiga Tuigamala.
"With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Joeli Vidiri, aged 48," the Blues said on Twitter.
"G.O.A.T is used frequently these days, more than it should. In the case of Joeli the title truly fits. One of the greatest players of all time."
