Has just announced on Radio Leeds that he has agreed a contract extension until the end of 2025

Deserved, great interview, a well grounded personality, honesty to boot. He has a brother, Brendan aged 29, Samoan International, played for Cronulla Sharks, he is beast, kept Andrew Fifita out of the team. His current contract was reported to be $2.1 m

Good stuff, you got the feeling that this was on the cards. He's young, big, does good minutes, great leg drive and can bend that defensive line, plus he seems to be loving his time here. So he's got plenty to work with, and his best years are ahead of him.

Think you mean Brayden. Also wouldn't say kept Andrew out. More a case of a broken body and time playing caught up with Andrew. He needed more than 10 operations to sort him out after time at sharks and not sure he's bothered to do this yet as he's playing union.

Wasn't sure about him at first tbh, but in the last few games he has been one of, if not our best player.
Seems to be enjoying it too, which is a big help...

Andrew is playing rugby league for Woy Woy Roosters in the Central Coast League, he seems to be helping on the coaching along with Big Dave.

Looks like doing some moonlighting

Former Sharks premiership-winning front-rower Andrew Fifita made a shock switch to rugby union on Saturday. The Tackle was sent a photo of Fifita running out for Colleagues fourth grade at Woollahra Oval number 2 in the NSW suburban rugby union
