Samoa Rugby Union Chairman

PM Tuilaepa as the SRU Chairman

The Prime Minister was speaking at the launching of the Manu Samoa Old Boys Association in Auckland New Zealand last Thursday, a day before the Manu Samoa –All Blacks test at Eden Park.

But in spite of all the challenges and the Manu Samoa’s short comings on the field, “Manu Samoa rugby continues to be the face of Samoa on the international stage,” noted the Prime Minister.

“No other sport comes close to stirring the mood of the nation with the obsessive passion that our people have for our Manu Samoa Teams,” he continued.
