We will see if he amounts to anything. In NZ he would have received the quality coaching and game management he needs, in Oz... he won't.

“It could still be done in New Zealand but it would be harder, and I
have always supported the Wallabies, and that makes me want to go to
Australia. I just love the Wallabies, I don’t know what it is about
them.”
You gotta love the Lad for that alone don't you?

Bummer for NZ rugby. Correctly managed, this boy will be a handful in the future for any defence.This is not news. He said a couple of months ago he was more than likely to head to Oz where his bro lives.

Well what did I tell ya. The kbbs bird brains are mightily peeved at the Ozzies recruiting PI long thgier exclusive poaching reserve. Cloudy is calling the poor guy a walliefattie tongan!! Oh shame on you Cloudy for being so mean to the oak!!
I told the kbbs this was going to happen a long time ago. What is more just like the PI do when recruited for the kiwis the PI recruited for the Wobblies will say how proud they are to play for that great side the wobblies. The Ozzies will tell the world that the PI much prefer to play test rugby for the Wobblies and their own county so dont accuse them of poaching - the same story that the kiwi aplogists churn out hoping someone somewhere will beliv their nonsense. Bwahahahhahahahahaha
On top of it all nz and Oz will do zip to ensure the PI have a rugby future of their own. Then on the PI side they will meekly accept the hand dealt to them and continue to prop up nz and OZ rugby wise - how lame and passive do you get!
Now I ask you did Beeno call it or what!

Some extarcts from the article:
TONGAN Thor’ Taniela Tupou has urged his “haters” to calm down after he confirmed his sensational defection from New Zealand to Australia.
The 18-year-old will join an Australian Super Rugby team next year after rejecting a landmark offer from the New Zealand Rugby Union, which for the first time in history bid top-up money to a sign a schoolboy. (Wee abs getting desaprate for some talent!!)
Tupou, the hottest teenage prospect in world rugby, officially ended New Zealand’s hopes of retaining his services on Monday, telling the Daily Telegraph: “I will be coming to Australia, it is the best thing for my family”
Tupou’s decision has caused an uproar across the Tasman, with internet forums criticising his move or simply downplaying his talent.(Just like here judging by comments from the kbbs!!)
“I see all the haters’ comments, what they say about me. Calm down, I’m only 18, I’m still at school. (YES COULD ALL HATERS PLEASE CALM DOWN - HERE AS WELL. NO NAME CALLING EG WALLIEFATTIETONGAN ETC!!!)
“It’s hard, I am just trying to go to school, and sometimes the haters’ comments make me feel weak. (pOOR OAK IS BEING PERSECUTED RELENTLESSY BY THESE HATERS!! - SHOCKING REALLY)
“But I have to be strong.”
The NSW Waratahs, Queensland Reds, Brumbies and Western Force are all in the running to sign the barnstorming 135kg prop, with only Melbourne Rebels having filled their squad quota for the 2015 season. (THIS MARKS THE END OF NZ'S EXCLUSIVE PAOCHIG RIGHTS TO pi TALENT - AS FORETOLD BY BEENO THE RUGBY SAIGE!)
Reds coach Richard Graham confirmed his interest in signing Tupou, who had been pursued in New Zealand by the Chiefs and Blues.

“I have been aware of Taniela’s ability since April when the Reds toured New Zealand, I think he is a phenomenal athlete and his YouTube clip in late May was a snippet of what he is capable of,” Graham said.
“Like everyone, we would be interested in bringing a player of his quality into our program.”
The Waratahs, Brumbies and Force did not return calls about Tupou on Monday.
In an extraordinary move, Tupou will walk away from New Zealand despite being offered extra money from the NZRU — the only time they have made such an offer to a schoolboy. (SEESM oZ DOLLAR HAS BEATEN THE NZ - A FUTURE TREND OF COURSE!)
While Tupou has fielded big-money offers from France and England, he said it was best for him and his family to live in Australia, where his older brother Criff works as a miner and will oversee his career.
“I can play there and get help from my brother, and then we can help my mum,” Tupou said.(wHAT FINE YOUNG MAN CARING FOR HIS FAMILY LIKE THSI. aWAY WITH ALL THESE HATERS PERSECUTINGA SCHOOLBOY!)
“It could still be done in New Zealand but it would be harder, and I have always supported the Wallabies, and that makes me want to go to Australia. I just love the Wallabies, I don’t know what it is about them.” (I SUPPOSE THE KIWIS DO SUFFER BY COMPARISON!!)
Criff Tupou said: “What people should understand is that this in not about what Nela wants, or what I want, but what is best for our poor little family.
“Playing rugby for New Zealand or Australia will always come second to our family.
“My mum lives in Tonga, she would not handle the weather in New Zealand.
“And I have a good job in Australia and can look after Nela.
“If things don’t work out for him in rugby, what can he do in New Zealand? He is better off in Australia where I can help him get a job. (Hmmmmm seems like the kiwis are poor cousins of the Ozzies like REds has been telling us!!)
“New Zealand has more rugby opportunities, but Australia has more work and opportunities, and I need to look after my little brother.
“We haven’t signed a contract with anyone, we will wait and see what offers we get and make a decision soon.”
I think the kbbs will just have to realise they have no exclusive poaching rights to the players of foreign countires much as they are confused by this. The Ozzies now will be poaching even more talent than the poor kiwis. The last people to throw stones at the Ozzies or the PI players themselves are the deluded kbbs.
Hence as I said the furtur looks bright for teh Wobblies and less bright for the kiwis. Expect the Bledis loe Cup to spend much more time in Oz in the future.
Beeno happy to clarify matters!

Word last night is Tupou is close to signing a deal with the Reds. Reds seem to have been on a spending spree of late. Hope it all works out for the young fella. He will be a big lad when he grows up. Only being a kid and all.

Just what the reds need... bit of size and impact in the forwards... don't care even if he is only a kid... lol
Cloudy I think why kiwis struggle so much with the aussie sense of humour and way of life is that you kiwis seems to go on so much about respect being such an important value... I think it shows you take yourselves too seriously....
and IF you grow up in this country taking yourself too seriously.... you're in for a hard time... Aussies like to keep ones in their place... interesting analysis actually - thanks for the insight.
so... please don't be nasty to the youngster - hes so fast he maybe put out on the wing...lol

No ,Kiwis get Aussie humour and so on , its just the odd [ very odd ] aussie that gets their undies all bunched up when they cant have ALL the marbles .I have actually seen very little negative stuff directed at this "kid " [ you can join the Army at 17 and a half ] on kiwi rugby forums .Most folks are like "meh "Good luck to him , joining a bottom dwelling team like the reds he needs it .

hi cloudy high degree of irony in your post.... posting that aussies are rascist on a saffa website.... think about it.
now if u have travelled much outside the cold rainy isles (NZ) you would have learnt that every country in the world is rascist... but u are probably too sheltered for that.
I have spent much time in asia and gaijin and gweilo are normal everyday words.... they dont the pc police running their countries.
So basically suck it up yes many aussies are uneducated bogans but the maori mentality in nz to me reeks of segregation rather than unity...
open your eyes young girl.
