I see why the Lions drafted him. I hope he has a happy long career with the Lions.
Greatest quote: "I refuse to get outworked by my peers"
As a canadian, I'm frickin pumped for this dude! Let's Go!
Detroit is close to the border, which is nice for him. Only Seattle would be closer to home for him.
As a youtube commenter, same.
@@kryer981Detroit puts him in Canada, but no closer to home.
@@MaxPower-vf8ktyeah and you could play the game he’s closer to Canada in Detroit than in Seattle. 🤪
@@freedomthefreeman487 But Seattle is closer to British Columbia.
As a proud Polynesian, welcome to the Lions Gio, Vaki, Peko eetc
Nothing like unbridled power to bolster a team already riding the waves of success....
All we need now is for our Rookies to harness that power, receive the right training/coaching to become elite NFL Athletes!
ON PRIDE BABY!!!!....All the way from Wellington, New Zealand!!!!!!!!!
I love this dudes mentality. Super prideful, family oriented, tough minded and sounds like a hard worker! Can’t wait to see him grow into a role with the Lions.
He has the Size and Athleticism that will be a tail wind to get where he wants to be.
I wanna see that Manu - Betts matchup! This guy is pure passion, I LOVE IT!
The lions need to get his parents and sister in town . He would be given a renewed level energy and happiness with his family here, even just for a couple weeks. He has heartache just by his words. They've never seen him play a down make it happen lions that goes above football and it matters sometimes take care of your own.
Dude is gon be a BEAST
Dude is a beast, he is going to be a nightmare for defenders.
How can you not Root for this dude. Man Holmes and MCDC legit only draft Football players like they say they do.
This young man is going to do very, very well, especially having his position coach and fellow players teaching him.
Lions organization did it again. Drafting players that fits a winning culture we are building
Already has the big body and mindset, once he learns the technique he will be a beast. He will learn from the best on this O line for sure
Listening to him is making me cry. What a huge heart.
Know why because you get it!!!Most don't
Representing 🇨🇦 Let’s Go!!
That's probably a 2L bottle he's drinking from.
Manu levels up our jumbo package.
The o-line is going to be very imposing.
All grit ...my guy belongs here. He is honest too. Gonna like this big fella . Blessings manu 🙏
He’s a football guy. Love it.
Wow! I love this guys attitude. How could you not root for him? Hoping for the best for you! ONE PRIDE 🦁
He speaks with a lot of intelligence and passion. Keep grinding Manu -- you can do it!
Fan favorite already.
We have 2 excellent G, this year so no need to rush him.
He’s a tackle.
Wow the character of Gio really stood out here. What an amazing human being
Love this guys attitude, another great addition to the team! Well done, Holmes, well done!
My approach at work has always been to make myself valuable. Gio understands this and at a much younger age. He is gonna do just fine and make a great lion.
As his ex-teammate at UBC, this dude is going to be great in the NFL. no doubt.
New jersey looks badass!
Manu was my draft “crush” this year pre draft when he hit the workout scene. His physical traits are insane. Trent Williams like. Going to have bookends for awhile in Detroit.
Love this guy also...this team is going to be fire. Arnold is amazing also!
Heart of a Lion
This guy is going to become a stud. Give him a year or two under these coaches and with these players and success will be inevitable 💪🦁
Haven't seen a single minute of his UBC games, but already know this guy is my favorite pick of the draft.
Kind of player I want. Enjoys the game and not about the money.
Can't wait to see him unleashed,welcome to the pride,you are definitely blue collar so this is a perfect fit.Lets go!
The BFG (Big Friendly Giant)
Seems like a high character, driven young man. If he grows as everyone hopes, I think there’s a good chance he sees the field in around 3 years. 2 if he’s develops really fast. Would be awesome to see him on the left side with Penei on the right!
Welcome to Detroit proud brother ❤❤you got this 😊choohoo go Lions 🎉🎉
great attitude
I hope we get to see him on the field soon.
I could be selfish and say I hope he helps our Lions wow what an interview I’m hoping for HIM to succeed and if he helps our lions then that’s great too!
Damn Domination
I really like his attitude
Gio definitely sounds like a Lion!
Belated happy birthday to your dad Manu.
I believe it's a + on his scouting report when he is a family first guy. No wonder BH was in a hurry to grab him. His ceiling is high.
Dawg!
I hope he works out. Him and sewell as the future would be awesome.
Keep pushing big dawg 😤💪🏽 Your family is getting closer and closer to seeing you play a down of football 💪🏽💪🏽
This dude is not out here to play any games!! “Taking food from my family” “I don’t care about the money” that’s a mindset that can’t be defeated. I’m almost more pumped for him than Arnold.
reminds me alot of coach campbell. emotional but a football guy excited to see him improve
He has me believing that he is going to work his way to being an all pro for years, I will have to mark my words.
Please, Please let this guy develop into a legitimate tackle in this league. He is very likable and driven
BC boy doing his hometown proud
Damn, I can see why BH traded up to get this dude! Hope he can develop and become a starter in the years to come alongside Sewell.
I’m a fan from this point on.
Welcome to Detroit! He got the DAWG mentality.
Can't wait to see him play football 🏈
Him an Sewell on the same side Montgomery an Gibbs will each run for 1800 each in the same year. The Lions will ave 42 to points a game.
I love that kind of thinking.
Hopefully he can get his family assuming they want to out to Detroit so they can finally see him play way more often now
I can see the Lions paying his families way to see him play!!!!
Gotta cheer for him
Imagine running the rock behind this guy
This guy has the right attitude.
He raw but i hope it works out for him and the lions
the lions are the pefect team to bring out his talents
Lions are making a push for a 3 yr window also, if they don’t win a championship or they do the looks are that they are drafting the line for the future offense and defense. I see the way the team is going to operate and I am okay with that. 😊
I hope they put this monster at right guard lmao this offensive line gonna be SCARY
He’s a tackle
Mahogany is the guard
Him, Penei and Mahogany will be very scary.
How about giving the questioner a cordless mic so we can hear their questions?
Shut up
We've been asking for years at this point.
I would have thought after two extra home playoff games they could afford it. 🤔🤔🤔
Gotta love this kid
All of our linemen about to be rocking nose rings!!
Although we all love decker, I have a feeling this guy will replace him at left tackle. Penei and Gio reppin
Decker will retire a Lion. Gio will get reps but he’s not ready yet.
@@AlisonPratt-vc3os May Decker retire a Lion with a Super Bowl ring.
Easy to root for.
His Canadian accent is precious lmao
Mature beyond his years . Hard to judge his age .
I can tell right now this guy is gonna be in the hall of fame
I've been a Lions fan since they drafted Billy Sims! Never been this excited about this team. I'm not a hater, I like Goff but, I'd really like to see Hooker out there! Possibly the next Michael Vic!! GO LIONS!! 🙂
We found our bookend right tackle
Imagine the young man on hockey skates ..
Dude seems like he cud be a beast if he develops right but idk bout him being at LT over Sewell wen Decker is gone
In 10 years from now, everyone will talk about how the chargers shoulda picked him at 5th overall.
Goated
Where is his family from?
He is Tongan
The more I see of this guy, the more I love him. He's going to be starting at LT soon.
I’m looking forward to the day when 70,000 screaming fans inside Ford Field begin to chant GIO, GIO, GIO.
Seems like a good guy,seemed a little winded during the interview. Hopefully his cardio is ok
Yeah his cardio is fine, his nose was runny he’s definitely suffering from allergy season since it was extra rough this year. My nose was blocked and had me struggling to breathe a few days ago
👍
Somebody needs to inform him, Penei will be the LT.
He's just basing it off of what they have him repping in practice. He doesn't know the future plans the FO has.
He still needs work at all positions, that's how you develop a good player
Not necessarily. Lane Johnson has played RT for forever even though he's better than Mailata who plays LT for Philly, and their OL has been elite the whole time
"Yeah I would love to see myself at Left Tackle as 59 and Penei at Right as 58."
Wow that's cool- Hold up did he say Left Tackle? Young Buck talking about beating Penei? He sounds polite but he's a dog!
Dude makes me nervous watching how nervous he is. I hope he catches his breath soon.
Steal of the draft
