Like to second the others excited at our pick ups
Now the hard work begins and it’s in their hands to make AFL debut
Good luck young men |
Joffa is married to Atu's grandmothers sister. So that makes Joffa his great uncle, more than a family friend, but the kid refers to him as his grandfather |
Yes, I can see the family resemblance |
It's the eyes.

Fiji very much punches above their weight in Rugby 7's still don't they?
I assume this is because of some natural athletic advantages over those nations of largely European descent with far greater populations.
Atu looks to be physically gifted, while his frame unlike say a Brad Dick shouldn't require multiple preseasons of strength and conditioning work in order to withstand the rigors of playing against men at VFL or AFL level.
Given Atu has only being playing the game for a few seasons we should be hopeful that with increased exposure and development to the game within an elite system he still has marked improvement left within and could prove to be a draft steal.
