  • Taniela Tupou, commonly known by fans as Tongan Thor, is now one of the top props in World Rugby for Australia and Queensland Reds. Back in 2014, Tupou sensationally emerged on the scene for Sacred Heart College in this match. After this match, everyone was talking about him.

      @KiwiSpartan1 Před 3 lety

      I can agree I was one to disagree with his work and effort as when he expressed himself if he didn’t get picked to play for New Zealand he’d go play for Australia and he did.
      He played his 1st game and there was an article about his performance or exposing his mentality about how he lost his temper or something along the lines of that.
      He has come very far and I can say I was wrong he grew into his role as an Australian Rugby Player and a good one at that
      The all blacks clash they had they shut the Tongan Thor down
      Only can see where this takes the bro
