After growing up playing rugby union in Wellington Kohe-Love joined the new Auckland Warriors franchise on a development contract in 1995.

Toa Kohe-Love has previously played for the Bradford Bulls, two spells at Widnes Vikings, Warrington Wolves, Leigh Centurions and Hull FC.

In October 2007 Kohe-Love joined the Leigh Centurions after experiencing defeat in the 2007 National League One Grand Final with the Widnes Vikings.

Following the defeat and missing out on a place in the Super League at the last hurdle for a second consecutive year the Widnes Vikings went into administration and were forced to sell most of their star players.

Toa Kohe-Love was one of the stars to leave to join the Leigh Centurions along with Denis Moran, Gareth Price, Lee Doran, Mike Morrison and Martin Keavney.
