Went to watch Doncaster Knights V Yorkshire Carnegie yesterday I know
Quote from Programme " son of ex Rotherham Samoan International Mike Umaga" No mention of his Fathers RL career of course !!
For the Record he played Right Centre scoring 2pens+2conv in a 20-18 win

Hardly surprising considering he only played 2-3 seasons of rugby league in his career and was a full international at union.

Mike Umaga was very deceptive surprisingly fast when you played against him , probably because of his long stride that he didn't look that fast and rock hard when in contact

Still worth a mention I would think. Perhaps the kick and clap brigade don't want to sully their programme with league talk.

Well it’s a start that they are referencing his father, a lot of the reports I’ve read on him merely refer to him as the nephew of Tana!
