Is Taniela Tupou The Next Great (All Black)?


As you've probably seen on Youtube, this young 18-year-old Tongan prop named Taniela Tupou has been wowing rugby fans here and overseas with his barn-storming body, runs and tries.

To be honest, I've never seen better calves from a full grown man, let alone a Sacred Heart College student.

Could Taniela Tupou be the next great All Black? I think the Blues might be very keen to secure his services just like the Hurricanes secured Jeff Toomaga-Allen before anyone knew who he was. In that case, New Zealand rugby can look forward to seeing a future great prop in their ranks.

Or he could be rugby's version of Freddy Adu. I doubt not after this though.
