Doncaster Knights are delighted to announce that Logovi’i Mulipola will be staying at Castle Park for the 2025/26 season.

Born on the Manono Island of Samoa, Logovi’i has been essential in bringing experience to the team this season. He began his career in his home country, and earning his first international appearance in 2009 and going on to represent Samoa over 30 times, including two World Cups.

Mulipola moved to England to join Leicester Tigers in 2011, playing over 130 times for them and winning the Anglo-Welsh Cup in 2012 and the Premiership in 2013.

In 2018, he joined fellow Premiership side, Newcastle Falcons, for 5 years, making 63 appearances for the club. During his tenure in the North East he spent a loan spell at Gloucester Rugby.

Logovi’i left Falcons in 2013, and signed at Montpellier Hérault during the World Cup campaign as positional cover. He then joined Saracens on a permanent deal until the end of the 2024. before signing here at Doncaster Knights. 

Mulipola has been a huge addition to the Knights squad. 

Forwards coach Darren Fearn said: 

“We are chuffed to bits that Logo has re-signed, you don’t achieve what Logo has in his career without being an exceptional rugby player. We’ve seen Logo’s quality on field this season and I know that will continue to be the case, because every time Logo pulls on that shirt, he wants to win and he is an ultimate competitor.” 

“I have been fortunate enough to know Logo for a big chunk of time now, so I’ve experienced this first hand. But everybody you speak to who has worked with Logo in their environment says what a brilliant bloke he is and I can 100% vouch for that. So, we are delighted Logo is continuing to be a part of our crew and help us build.” 

Head of Recruitment Matt Harland said:

“To have a player like Logo Mulipola in any squad is priceless. The experience he brings and calmness he generates throughout the squad has been vital in these last 7 games.”

“You can tell he is someone who just loves rugby and being in around the lads. He’s brilliant for the coaches as he does what he thinks is best for the team. So to have Logo for another season is brilliant for the club”
