Never knew that I had 3 heads... 2 maybe
At the forum I said "Mate Ma'a Tonga and FC" - which translates to 'Die for Tonga & Hull'
I met Willie and the rest of Tonga team during a lunch break whilst they were over here in the UK - most of the team had Mate Ma'a tatooed on their calf muscles. Willie had just left Cas and whilst he had signed for FC hadn't yet put on the B&W shirt. He was pleased to be signing for a club which would allow him to play his style of rugby... and make an impact. Not sure that we have been let down
For the record I also asked Sharpie if he was concerned about the overall intensity of the game, lack of off season time to allow the bodies to rest and the injuries that we may have - he said he was confident that FC had depth in the squad... and that it was stronger than most in SL.
