On 7 November 2016, it was announced that Toma had joined Irish Pro12 side Munster on a short-term loan. [6] On 2 December 2016, Toma made his competitive debut for Munster when he came on as a replacement for Duncan Williams in a 2016–17 Pro12 fixture against Scottish side Glasgow Warriors.
Toma spent the early part of the 2016 Super Rugby season with the Chiefs Development Squad, however a halfback crisis which saw Aaron Smith, Fumiaki Tanaka and Josh Renton all ruled out after the 2016 mid-year rugby union internationals break led to Toma receiving a call up to the Highlanders squad for their tours of South Africa and Argentina. In all, Toma made 3 appearances for the Highlanders, starting one game as they reached the semi-finals of the competition. [3] [4]
