Ere Enari

A sharp and tactically astute half-back, Ere Enari brings tempo and game management to the Hurricanes from the base of the ruck. Born on 30 May 1997, the Samoan international is known for his crisp, accurate passing, intelligent support lines and a varied kicking game that helps his side control territory. Enari is a clever organiser who keeps his forwards moving and is quick to spot and exploit space around the fringes, qualities that make him equally effective starting matches or injecting energy from the bench. His experience at Test level with Manu Samoa has added composure and authority to his decision-making under pressure. Within the Hurricanes squad he provides experienced cover and a reliable controlling option at scrum-half, capable of dictating the pace of a game when called upon. Combining a strong pass, a thoughtful kicking game and a competitive edge, Enari is the kind of dependable, ball-playing nine who allows those outside him to play with confidence, and he remains an important part of the Hurricanes' depth in the position.
