Siegfried Fisi'ihoi

Siegfried Fisi'ihoi (born 8 June 1987) is a Tongan professional rugby union player who plays as a prop for Top 14 club Pau and the Tonga national team.

[1][2][3][4] Born in Tonga, Fisi'ihoi moved to New Zealand in his teens and attended Rotorua Boys' High School where he initially played his rugby as a number eight.

He stayed in the Bay of Plenty after school and was playing for their development side in 2010 when a minor liquor ban breach flagged up that he had overstayed his visa and he was subsequently deported back to Tonga.

[1][4][5] Something of a late bloomer, Fisi'ihoi's first experience of senior provincial rugby came at the age of 27 when he made the Bay of Plenty squad for the 2014 ITM Cup.

[2] Solid domestic performances for the Bay of Plenty in 2014 and 2015 saw him named in the Chiefs wider training group ahead of the 2016 Super Rugby season.
