Tupou Vaa’i in action against Argentina
From a capable backup to a consistent starter in 2024, Vaa’i has risen up. Although he’s happy with his development, he admitted that he still feels inferior to the other members of the squad.
I’m just having fun participating, both on and off the pitch. Vaa’i remarked, “I feel like I’ve taken advantage of my opportunity this year, even though I’ve been sitting in the back waiting for it.
I want to be a part of this team for a very long time since it is truly unique. Scott (Barrett) and Patty (Tuipulotu) are the two gorgeous locks in front of me. They have both been unreal this year and I’m pretty much learning off them.
