Kirisome Auva’a (born 23 February 1992), also known by the nickname of “Somi”, is a Samoan former professional rugby league footballer who last played as a centre and winger for the Parramatta Eels in the NRL. A Samoa international representative, he won the 2014 NRL Premiership with the South Sydney Rabbitohs.
In 2014, Auva’a joined the South Sydney Rabbitohs. In Round 6 of the 2014 NRL season, Auva’a made his NRL debut for the Rabbitohs against the Penrith Panthers, playing at Centre and scoring a try in the Rabbitohs 18-2 win at Penrith Stadium. His season was interrupted by the repercussions of the domestic violence incident in January, but with the magistrate’s deferral of her decision for six months, Auva’a was free to resume playing. On 5 October 2014, in the Rabbitohs 2014 NRL Grand Final against the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, Auva’a played at centre and scored a try in the Rabbitohs 30-6 victory. Auva’a finished his debut year in the NRL in 2014 season with him playing in 21 matches and scoring 9 tries for the Rabbitohs.
On 13 July 2016, Auva’a was sacked by the Rabbitohs for a second breach of the NRL’s Testing Policy for illicit substances. Auva’a is the second Rabbitohs player this week to have his contract terminated after forward Paul Carter was let go on Tuesday for breaching the club’s code of conduct. While Auva’a, did not return a positive test for an illicit or hazardous substance in this instance, he contravened the rules as set out in the NRL Policy. Under the terms of the policy, the Rabbitohs had the right to terminate the troubled star’s contract for a second breach. In a statement released on Thursday afternoon, South Sydney said they would “continue to offer welfare assistance and support to Kirisome”.

On 7 May, he made his international debut for Samoa against Tonga in the 2016 Polynesian Cup, where he played at centre in the 18-6 win at Parramatta Stadium. Auva’a finished the 2016 NRL season with him playing in 13 matches and scoring 3 tries for the Rabbitohs.
On 28 May 2014, Auva’a entered a guilty plea to charges of recklessly causing injury and criminal damage in Melbourne Magistrates Court after being arrested for a violent attack in the early hours of January 18. After drinking heavily at a wedding, he threw his ex-girlfriend against a garage wall and punched holes in the walls of her home. South Sydney fined him $2,000 and suspended him for 7 days. The magistrate, who described the incident as “devastating”, deferred her decision for six months; Auva’a was bailed to return to court in November, when he was given a two-year good behaviour bond and a fine of $3,000. On 13 November 2014, Auva’a was handed a 9-month suspension by the NRL, ending with round 22 of the 2015 season, and ordered to complete a secondary prevention counselling program covering issues including violence against women, alcohol abuse and anger management. An attempt by Auva’a to have his suspension lifted early was denied by the NRL.
