Exeter Chiefs signed Black Ferns tighthead prop Amy Rule to join the club following the culmination of the Rugby World Cup, making her the first capped New Zealand woman to join the PWR.
Despite a successful Super Rugby career with Canterbury and Matatū, Rule was a late starter to rugby. She only began playing in her last two years at Central Southland College. Her move to Christchurch for university in 2019 led to a place in the front-row in a tournament-winning Farah Palmer Cup team before getting noticed by the Black Ferns Development XV for their campaign in Fiji.
Rule made her Black Ferns test debut in November 2021 against England in Northampton. In 2022, she was part of the Black Ferns’ Rugby World Cup 2021 winning squad.
Rule said: “Rugby has given me so many opportunities and has made me the person I am today. Getting the chance to join Exeter is a part of that journey to grow my rugby but also make new connections and see what the hype is about this England comp that I keep hearing about!
“The plan is to make Black Ferns’ Rugby World Cup squad then carry on to join Exeter later in the year. All I can say at this point is all my focus is on the World Cup but once that’s done, I’m really excited to rip into the season with Exeter Chiefs and hopefully play lots of rugby and take my game to another level.”
