Sin-binned Taumalolo wins respect after standing by felled foe | mrchrisnico
Jason Taumalolo did not miss Isaiah Papali’i with his thundering tackle on Friday night, but what TV viewers would have missed was the heart-warming image of a concerned Taumalolo remaining with Papali’i in back play for several tackles.
The North Queensland star stayed with Papali’i as play advanced down field. Rather than run back to the defensive line, the lock forward put his hand on Papali’i as he lay on the turf. Lorina, who represented Samoa at two rugby World Cups and New Zealand at two rugby league World Cups will make the trek to Sydney with husband Jerry next weekend.
“When he did go off the field, I was hoping he would come back on. He looked fine to us. We also wanted to make sure he was OK and finished strongly.“We’re just excited and grateful he has this opportunity to try and win the grand final.”
