In 2002, at age 18, and after several seasons in the Hurricanes' youth system playing in the centres Afamasaga was spotted by Parramatta Eels rugby league scout Mark Horo and was signed to the Australian club on a development deal.

He then went on to play five games for the club and showed glimpses of the great potential he possessed eventually going on to win the Eric Grothe Rookie of the Year award.

Afamasaga was offered a new deal at Parramatta at the completion of the 2006 NRL season but signed for the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles instead, deciding to chase a regular first grade spot.

Signed before the 30 June deadline, Afamasaga was free to play with the Victorian side and their feeder team on the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks.
