It's amazing.
I hope that's what my teammates would say which is it was led well and we felt connected.
How did you feel being Samoan and leading the haka?
I always think about all the pioneers that have come before us and to be able to see one of my teammates and heroes, Tana Umanga, lead as well.
I think that's what we're all doing.
It's something that you're doing as well, opening the door for others to say, we can do this, I can do this.

Yeah.
