The guy is such a legend, even still and he has the heart after all his own tragedies to still keep giving! http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/leag ... 1bcmm.html

Absolute legend

He is an inspiration to people and a legend too. I hope we get to see film of this game someday. The lineup that is playing looks awesome. You can't believe it's eight years since his accident.

Indeed T's whole story is an inspiring one. Legend is too often a word used these days, but in this case it's on the button, in it's truest sense.

Of course you can.

If i lost my wife and then lost a leg i genuinely don't think i'd have the emotional strength. This guy really is an inspiration and if Gaz Thomas is worthy of a film then Nikau's story needs plugging to the script writers.
I'll say it again, inspirational.

I think Nikau's story would be a great film but to find the right actor to play him is the problem but I think there is a Kiwi called Temeura Morrison ( not sure about the surname ) who might be able to. Just don't let Mickey Rourke near it.

There have been a few players that have undeservedly been given the title of "Legend" by some fans. This bloke is the real deal and a proper legend. I wish we could somehow get him to at least visit Cas again so we can shake his hand again and introduce him to the younger Cas fans.
