Ma'a Nonu is one of the most popular and richest Rugby Union Player who was born on May 21, 1982 in Wellington, Wellington Region, New Zealand. A versatile rugby player who played for the New Zealand Sevens from 2002-2004; also played for Super Rugby’s Hurricanes from 2003-2011.
Both he and Jeremy Guscott played for the Wellington Lions.
Nonu has been noted to possess a similar attacking skillset to former All Black centre Tana Umaga. Like Umaga, he is an exceptional crash ball runner who excels at breaking the line and creating space for outside backs. In 2005, Henry described Nonu as “young Tana,” underlining the impression that he was being groomed as a potential successor to Umaga. This comparison has been confirmed in recent times by Wayne Smith.
Wellington Lions captain Umaga was rested during the 2005 NPC, and in his absence Nonu was promoted to the captaincy of the team. During the NPC, he established himself as one of New Zealand’s most dangerous midfield runners. He was selected for the 2005 All Blacks Grand Slam tour, playing Tests as a substitute against Wales and Scotland, and earning his third Test start against Ireland. He was cited for an alleged spear tackle against Brian O’Driscoll during the Test against Ireland, but was later cleared of the charge.
In 1982, he was born to Vaka and Fale.
