Born: 23.10.75
Position: Wing
Club: Wellington
A wing of great class, Fa'atau is hard to miss with his distinctive tattooed legs.
He can do 40m in 4.75sec and used his pace in some style in 2000 when he finished as the leading try scorer in New Zealand's National Provincial Championship while with Taranaki.
He followed that up by repeating the feat in 2001, this time for Wellington, and since then the New Zealand-born star has gone on to play in the Super 12 competition for the Hurricanes.
Also a star in the Sevens star, Fa'atau has scored six tries in 12 international appearances in the 15-a-side game and is set to be one of the stars of the World Cup.
