Player Ken Maumalo

[Noitall]

Footy field was no place for politics in our day.

Remember when Sol Kata swapped sides with Hiku when the coaches discovered he couldn't pass to his right? Fuck me, glad those days are over after the Webolution.

He could be a destructive player at times Kata, had the Polynesian sidestep down pact. Was a hungus close to the line but a strong runner. We had a few centres in that mould, never forget Hurrell running with legs raised and smashing Tupou’s teeth.

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

You right wing?

I always played left or fullback… however in the poorer rugby code unfortunately.

Tupou married a girl I grew up with- meet him at a wedding once and asked him about that- said he just put his head in the wrong place.
