Reds sign All Black Braid
5th October 2008, 11:37 WST
All Blacks flanker Daniel Braid became the first overseas international signed by an Australian Super Rugby team under the new Foreign Player Policy.
He will prove an invaluable asset to Queensland next year, according to the Australian Rugby Union (ARU) High Performance General Manager David Nucifora.
Braid has been recruited by the Reds for next season's Super 14 following the sudden retirement of long-serving former Wallabies flanker David Croft.
A backrower who played against Australia in the Sydney Bledisloe Cup Test this year, Braid's signing by Queensland was only made possible by the relaxation of the ARU's Foreign Player Policy early last month.
