Simon-Peter Toleafoa

Simon-Peter Toleafoa is a Samoan-eligible forward who features for Moana Pasifika in Super Rugby Pacific. Born on 26 October 1998, he is a versatile operator capable of covering both the second row and the loose forwards, offering his coaches valuable flexibility in selection. Toleafoa's contribution is built on physicality — strong carries into contact, committed tackling and a willingness to do the hard yards at the breakdown and set piece. As a core member of the pack, he provides the kind of grunt and aggression that allows a team to compete with the more established Super Rugby franchises. Now in his late twenties, he brings a blend of athleticism and experience to the Moana Pasifika engine room. His role is that of a dependable forward who sets a physical tone, anchors the tight phases and embodies the committed, hard-edged approach long associated with Pacific Islands rugby.
