In a true case of like father, like son, Kingston Leuluai, progeny of former NRL powerhouse Kylie Leuluai, has inked a deal with a Super League outfit, carrying on the family tradition in the rough and tumble world of rugby league.

Before hanging up his jersey for good, Kylie Leuluai blazed a trail through the NRL, taking the field for the Balmain Tigers, the Wests Tigers, the Sydney Roosters, the Parramatta Eels, and the Manly Sea Eagles during his eight-season stint.

His rugby journey eventually led him across the seas to the Super League, where he made a mark by representing Samoa a remarkable five times and tallying an impressive 258 appearances for the Leeds Rhinos from 2007 to 2015.

While Kylie now enjoys the retired life, his offspring Kingston is primed to make his mark in the sport with his first professional rugby league contract in hand, ready to don the colors of the Warrington Wolves.

"He may shy away from the limelight, but this time, we're not letting him off the hook," Kylie's better half cheekily remarked on social media.
