He generates so much force hes 135 kg isnt that tall his legs are huge has a low center of mass compared to alot of people and is hella fast. Absolute beast.
Coach: ok boys...let's go over our game plan that we've been training all week for for the big game. Boys: Doh give it to Taniela. Coach: precisely...now go out there and have fun.
Everyone gangsta until Taniela has the ball. It's not his skill. Everyone is just scared as shit to tackle something so powerful. It's like running in front of a car. Insane.
I can agree I was one to disagree with his work and effort as when he expressed himself if he didn’t get picked to play for New Zealand he’d go play for Australia and he did. He played his 1st game and there was an article about his performance or exposing his mentality about how he lost his temper or something along the lines of that. He has come very far and I can say I was wrong he grew into his role as an Australian Rugby Player and a good one at that The all blacks clash they had they shut the Tongan Thor down Only can see where this takes the bro
@@roc6012 he wasn’t eligible for Nz junior teams due to his Tongan nationality, he had to wait until eligible. I can’t remember the exact details how it worked but Australia weren’t so strict on that , he had less of a wait , so he was gone .
Smith Nah he is a Australian 🇦🇺 player now because he chose to play for Australia 🇦🇺 over his birth country Tonga 🇹🇴 which is sad 😢 , But I do not have a problem with him tho because it’s his choice to disown his birth country for a foreign country.
Pure Tongan muscle & power this young dude possess, and the speed I think the coaching team needs to rethink his position in the front row as his showing talents to be a good centre mann. 💪🇹🇴💪
@@KiansCricketNThings Sorry to shock you but if you can see a mistake was made, it CANNOT be considered 'good officiating'. Understandable? Maybe. Good? No.
@@RRSmurf so maybe the ref didn't see it then? That's why he didn't call it? They didn't have the fortune of hindsight or pause and play like we do on RUclips now
We can have all our opinions s..the difference is , hes making a name for himself..hate him or love him, he has earned respect from alot of today's great rugby players including LEGENDS, that alone is enough, the kid is making a impact ..
He runs with such a wide gape like his pigeon toed that it makes impossible to tackle both legs and I don't mean his stride I'm talking about the width between his legs he runs bow legged unbelievable
@@baileygilbert4766 I’m serious? Sorry don’t watch much rugby. But came across the video. Hopefully Australia don’t poach him. Would love to see him in a All Black Jersey
No... plenty of schoolboy players that are huge and dominate at this level. Means sweet fa. This bloke would last 15 mininutes in league. So slow laterally and to turn. He'd leak more points than he scores
Looks awesome in the loose - all the skills and power - want to see if his skills in the tight match up - look forwad to seeing if he breaks into the professional game
R/P. Struth - he's been over dosing on the 'Ox & Palm' corned beef in his sleep ? Hope to see him off the bench playing for the Wallabies here tomorrow night in Perth, W.A. for the Bledisloe III match. Thirty years ago after boarding at SHC, was probably half his weight in G.I. ! V.
1:37 his foot went out before grounding the ball.. 5:08 massively forward... LOL ... anyway I look forward to seeing this man play super rugby, hopefully for Auckland!
@@greylynn-snakevenom113glc7 not really lmao. His rugby is average and all he's really got is a massive build. Nz stop him every time he tries to run, he makes no difference in scrums against nz and he gets penalised more than our front rowers in scrums too.
His foot looked out in that try at 2:10 ... in my opinion. His right foot looks like it hit the corner post and skidded out before he had the ball down.
I'm not sure if the people in the comments are trolling but do they honestly not know who he is? I mean I know for some reason people don't notice props but he's been playong for Australia for years now.
I bet that 9 was relieved when he threw the dummy, gave him an easy out
😂😂😂😂 9 would say that the dummy was a miracle.
😂😂😂
Literally what I thought as it happened
Exactly what I was thinking.
Nah he just didn’t want to try and tackle him 😂😂
His dad was looking forward to him moving out. That way he can be the man of the house again.
Lol that made me chuckle
most likely his dad was twice the size
Hahaha true
His father played for Tonga
His dad was probaly bigger
He generates so much force hes 135 kg isnt that tall his legs are huge has a low center of mass compared to alot of people and is hella fast. Absolute beast.
This guy has 2 redwoods for legs, bloody hell.
More impressed by his speed than his skill
God bless you Taniela Tupou. Do your best and be successful in life and in your future.
This was years ago, he's like 25 26 now, Tupou is an Australian professional rugby union player,,,
Coach: ok boys...let's go over our game plan that we've been training all week for for the big game.
Boys: Doh give it to Taniela.
Coach: precisely...now go out there and have fun.
Some of the most scared defenders I've ever seen on a rugby field especially the fullback doesn't want to get near him
Do you blame them hahahahaah
@@shayden4168 not really tbh🤣
I do blame them because it’s rugby your not suppose to be scared if your to scared to tackle them go play soccer
@@jackmeagher4554 I highly doubt you would tackle him. You're probably a 50kg winger that thinks they can tackle.
@@oscargt3951 👍🏾🤣
Im more impressed by his speed,I dont blame the defenders being scared to tackle him 😂
The Zion Williamson of rugby!
Everyone gangsta until Taniela has the ball. It's not his skill. Everyone is just scared as shit to tackle something so powerful. It's like running in front of a car. Insane.
Or maybe a rhino
Well this year he's been stopped by every nz team easy lol. He's only a monster when he's playing other Australians.
@@MaoriiGurLO9 that's cool, congratulations!
@@darrenjantjies9027 ngaw dont like the truth that the kiwis shut him down easy? 😂😂
@@MaoriiGurLO9 haahaa yea aye
Anyone else notice Hoskin Sotutu in the black headgear for Sacred? Two players that went on to play at international level.
he's nifty on his feet and positions himself well to receive passes; reads the game
I applaud Taniela's work effort and focus.
I can agree I was one to disagree with his work and effort as when he expressed himself if he didn’t get picked to play for New Zealand he’d go play for Australia and he did.

He has come very far and I can say I was wrong he grew into his role as an Australian Rugby Player and a good one at that
The all blacks clash they had they shut the Tongan Thor down
Only can see where this takes the bro
Rugby is a team game, all of you pass it to No. 3!
😂😂😂
I remember playing Sacred Heart in college, they have clearly come a long way since those days
What year and what grade did you play?
🤣🤣
And then your teammates say why didn’t u tackle him lmao
😂😂😂
Facts🤣🤣
Bruh u gotta do ur job my guy if he beats you he beats you but u can’t have fear on the footy field
@@HG-wl2fm true
@@HG-wl2fm you don’t know it but sometimes I’m scared or not confident to tackle and this message helps me thx
@4:38 defender be like "please please please throw a dummy so I can take it"
Gotta love genetics. Absolutely blessed
Supporting all the way from Fiji!!!🤙🏿💜
He was actually out when he scored the first try...
He was, what a hit from the fullback.
Second try looked like a forward pass too. No less impressive though.
Well spotted!
Where did he go out?
@@echo8168 watch his left foot it goes into touch before the ball is grounded
The way he just breezes around the fullback at 2:25
the fb values his life too much to attempt that tackle
If he wants to play for New Zealand, I will support him out of my heart. If he prefers OZ, then let it be.
@Deto Qcney where are you from
@Rocco Rossi he didn't choose Oz. he wanted the black jersey but the abs wanted him to play thru the ranks and he was impatient.
@@redevo1 where'd u get that information
@@roc6012 he wasn’t eligible for Nz junior teams due to his Tongan nationality, he had to wait until eligible.
I can’t remember the exact details how it worked but Australia weren’t so strict on that , he had less of a wait , so he was gone .
How long has that guy been around for?
He’s a f*cking machine. The pace on that 135 kg boy is crazy.
No longer a school boy he’s 25 and Australian international now
Since his birth.
Reminds me of a guy in our U13 rugby team. Deon Carsten end up playing for Natal sharks and for the Springboks.
Wow! Awesome guy and intelligent playing!
1:00 the way the fullback looks around after he bounces off 😂.
1:37 in the replay of that try his foot is in touch before the ball is grounded
It also show a foul by n15
My lower back is munted these days thanks to people like this. Respect to warriors though. Great talent, kid's a warlord :)
Great Samoan player
Tongan: 🇹🇴
Bruh your joking right?
Smith
Nah he is a Australian 🇦🇺 player now because he chose to play for Australia 🇦🇺 over his birth country Tonga 🇹🇴 which is sad 😢 ,
But I do not have a problem with him tho because it’s his choice to disown his birth country for a foreign country.
Oh this is schookboy rugby in New Zealand..miss it heaps
Baby rhinos leg is bigger than the opposition 15...🤣🤣🤣
This young man has skills
Yes: for a big fella!!
lomu in the making right here
go hard g
Was on plane sitting next to him few years back the aussie team flying with us nice bloke big unit
Pure Tongan muscle & power this young dude possess, and the speed I think the coaching team needs to rethink his position in the front row as his showing talents to be a good centre mann. 💪🇹🇴💪
Strong, beefy and fast... That dude is built for this type of sport.
A prop supporting the wing. Beautiful.
one of the best props in the world
1:37 clearly foot in touch...try....Willie lose says good officiating
Wouldn’t have changed too much tbh.
It’s schoolboy rugby, sorry to shock u but they don’t have a big screen and a TMO
@@KiansCricketNThings Sorry to shock you but if you can see a mistake was made, it CANNOT be considered 'good officiating'.

But the player was in touch, therefore this literally CANNOT be 'good officiating'.
That first try was hilarious. No prop I ever played with would even be in position to score that try lol
Hes like the prototype for prop-flanker 😂
He went out
The new Jonah Lomu. Badass dude right there.
Nah,
LOMU is a class above then the Aussie Thor.
This guy is a machine
We can have all our opinions s..the difference is , hes making a name for himself..hate him or love him, he has earned respect from alot of today's great rugby players including LEGENDS, that alone is enough, the kid is making a impact ..
like the way red 15 bounced off him
Yeh same 🤣🤣🤣
Taniela Tupou: Comes to the scene
Faf de Klerk: Finally a worthy opponent
I love watching players you know in 7 years will be superstar
Nothing against this boy, but it's unlikely he will have any impact at senior international level if he even makes a national team.
@@tonysa2337 hahahaha boy where you wrong
this kid made a whole compilation in just one game
I'm aching just watching this.. Some tough dudes
4:09 Watch the no.5 run up then became a deer in the headlights. Dang.
🤣🤣
He runs with such a wide gape like his pigeon toed that it makes impossible to tackle both legs and I don't mean his stride I'm talking about the width between his legs he runs bow legged unbelievable
I see that now
This guy is awesome. He’ll be a professional sometime soon.
Search him up 😂🤦♂️
I wouldn't be surprised if an Aussie team signs him up

Unstoppable runner! what's his scrummaging like?
I wonder if that is David Havili they mention in SAC?
He was going to be a star no matter what game he played in
Great video but I think you over did the replays abit haha
I bet the All Blacks selectors be keeping an eye on this boy, hes a beast and a half,
He plays for wallabies 🤣
Bro I did not expect him to be that fast. Likeee....wtf? Boy got fast feet 😳
He's probably only 16, what a freak talent
17

Just like TUISOVA😊👍👍👍

He already has, he plays rugby for Australia.
Yeah plays for aussie, but not really going anywhere there! Wasting away all that potential.

Not quite mate. Not even near the same level
Wow this guy has a bright future
Prop outrunning the centres
Lol 😆

Bloody good job 👍
That grass cut on tupou 😂 kelston boys just wanted to get tupou down at least once
linesman zoned in at 1:37 , var would've ruined that on field decision, excellent finish
no. 15 looked like anyone would look if they tackled the ground,,,like "why am I tackling this guy alone again?"
The Tongan Thor🤩 up the pit🔵🔴🔵
Blimey he is quick for a big lad!!!!!
This kids great, the wallabies should really sign him up
No one that big should be moving that FAST 😮💨
Wow so fast for so big, reminds me of Jonah lomu
6:03 I’ll give it to that guy that was the best way to tackle this beast lmao just take out the legs
One of his legs is as big as one whole player 😳
This guy didn’t skip leg day
Blue helmet in the red is good!
This 🇹🇴 boy eat taro ,he's so strong, eating island food make the body strong and fit,
Moving 135 kg at that speed takes incredible muscles.
