Henry Tuilagi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Henry Tuilagi is a Samoan rugby union footballer. He currently plays for the Leicester Tigers in the English club competition, the Guinness Premiership, and has appeared four times for his national team Samoa. He previously spent a year playing in the Italien super 10 competition for Parma as well as a spell in Rugby League.

Tuilagi made 24 first team appearances during his first season with the Tigers. He scored a try on his debut match for the Tigers against the London Irish. He soon established himself firmly in the Tigers lineup, but his next season was cut short with a broken leg in the final home game against the London Wasps.

The Tuilagi family has strong connections with Leicester Tigers; Henry's brothers Alesana (Alex) and Anitelia (Andy) also play for Leicester, and his other brother Fereti (Freddie) is a former player.

He was recently named in the Pacific Islanders rugby union team to tour Europe during the end of the year.
