Lifeimi Mafi

Ekels

Does anyone know if Winston Mafi playing with Calvisano is a relation of his? Both were born in Nukuʻalofa.
And there's a kid called Alfi Mafi, playing for Waratah's (Lifeimi and Winston's old club) from Tonga also.

What do we think Mafi's chances of an Irish cap are? Surely Kidney will take advantage of the fact that he'll be eligible, given that he'll only be 26 next year, and if he improves anything like he has over the last year, then he'll be a real world-class centre.

Defly could play for Ireland. He only has 2 years in the country tho. I think u need 5 to apply for the resisdency rule

If your were picking the Irish 15 tomorrow he would start, Darcy & O'Driscoll haven't done anything "world class" in the last 3 years and probably wont in the next 3

Size=everything

He can't play for Ireland

EVER.
