Kade Poki is one of the most popular and richest Rugby Union Player who was born on January 17, 1988 in Blenheim, Marlborough, New Zealand. Kade Poki (born 17 January 1988 in Blenheim, New Zealand) is a union rugby player for the Bayonne team in the French Top 14 competition. Prior to moving to France the player had been a part of Tasman at Tasman’s participation in the ITM Cup and the Highlanders in the Super Rugby competition.
In 2011, the ITM Cup, Poki signed with the Southland Stags, where he was a part of a group of his teammates from the Highlanders. But, he didn’t found his rhythm in the two seasons in Southland and played just 13 games with no scoring a single try.
Poki had to make a tough decision to stay with the crusaders on a one year deal, or to join the highlanders under new coach Jamie Joseph on a 2 year deal. He chose the crusaders for one year. He received an offer from a Japanese club (Sanix) to come after the super rugby season. When Poki asked for an early release from NZRU to head to Japan straight after the Super rugby season the crusaders withdrew their deal and Poki was left with no super rugby team until his contract started in 2014. The highlanders had a bad injury to Kurt Baker so Jamie Joseph got in contact with Poki to see if he wanted to join the team for preseason and cover Kurts position if the injury was prolonged. He ended up having a good season with the Highlanders and emerged as one of the breakout players of the competition. The highlanders offered him a 2 year contract to sign on again. Poki had to terminate his contract with the Japanese club he had signed with. Highlights of his season include a two- try performance in a win over the defending champion Bulls and a sublime individual effort against the Rebels in which he shrugged off 11 tackles to score. With higher expectations for the 2012 season, Poki was hobbled by a knee injury and missed much of the season, and was limited to a single try. However, he would rebound in the 2013 season scoring 5 tries from just 8 appearances. He played two year more seasons with the highlanders then headed to Japan to play for the Kubota spears in the Japanese top league.
In 2015, Poki signed in France with Bayonne of Pro D2 in France. In his first season, he scored 4 tries from 12 matches to help earn promotion to the Top
- He scored an additional two tries in 2016-17 as Bayonne were relegated back to Pro D2.
Poki played the Super Rugby debut for the Crusaders in 2008, when Poki played against ACT Brumbies. Only 20 years old, he played in 10 appearances for the team over the time of the season as well as scoring two touchdowns to help the team win the championship. But injuries and team size limited his ability to improve on the success of his first season. the player made just four more games for the Crusaders in the following two seasons.
