Moeaki Fotuaika, a powerful forward for the Titans, had an exceptional season on the field.
He not only earned a recall to the Queensland State of Origin team but was also named the Gold Coast's player of the year, winning the prestigious Paul Broughton Medal for the second time.
Additionally, Fotuaika signed a three-year extension with the club, solidifying his future with the Titans.
However, before he can hang up his boots for a well-deserved post-season break, there is one more task on his list - the Tonga tour of England.
Fotuaika was part of the Tonga squad that participated in the Rugby League World Cup last year.
Unfortunately, the team fell short of their own expectations and underperformed.
This year, Fotuaika and his teammates are determined to make amends and put in a strong effort against England.
The English side, like Tonga, will also be looking to improve on their last international result, especially in front of their home crowd.
The representative call-up for Fotuaika carries significant meaning for him, as he aims to showcase his skills and contribute to Tonga's success.
Furthermore, this tour provides him with an opportunity to represent his heritage and make his family proud.
With his recent addition to fatherhood, Fotuaika has even more motivation to perform at his best.
As Fotuaika prepares for the Tonga tour, he can reflect on his remarkable season and accomplishments.
From earning State of Origin selection to winning player of the year and securing a contract extension, he has undoubtedly had a season to remember.
However, with the tour ahead, Fotuaika remains focused and determined to add another achievement to his already impressive list.
