Miracle Faiilagi

Born in August 1999, Miracle Faiilagi is a Samoa international flanker plying his trade with Moana Pasifika in Super Rugby Pacific. A hard-grafting back-row forward, he has built a reputation around relentless work rate, dominant tackling and a destructive presence at the breakdown. Faiilagi has been part of the Moana Pasifika forward unit since the franchise's formative seasons, contributing as a regular option in the loose forwards. On the international stage, he has earned caps for Samoa, adding to his profile as one of the Pacific nation's emerging back-row options. His game centres on physical confrontation: he carries hard around the fringes, hunts ball over tackled players and provides defensive leadership for his pack. As Moana Pasifika continue to establish their identity in Super Rugby Pacific, Faiilagi remains a key figure in their forward effort, embodying the abrasive, high-tempo style the franchise has sought to build its game around.
