Lome Fa'atau - The Samoan Speedster Tribute

[2patero]

Smooth runner like Cullen and Rico Gear. Effortless!

[43SAMOA]

lol thats my uncle :)

[MrTuksyDriu]

Pacific people are very talented rugby players...!!

[AntaresInScorpius]

@MrTuksyDriu not really. That is because we dont play rugby in the US. if we played rugby, the pac islanders woudlnt be shit.

[z0mgrugbyreturns]

@AntaresInScorpius Are you fucking stupid? It's a proven fact that Pacific Islanders are the best athletes at American Football. What the fuck makes you think that your Americans would be any better athletes?

[AntaresInScorpius]

@z0mgrugbyreturns ahm. Wrong. As usual. Anytime the pac islanders have to play a southeastern conference team, they fall apart. They cant handle heat and humidity of the american south. They are too big.

[z0mgrugbyreturns]

@AntaresInScorpius I don't know if you realised but most rugby games aren't played in the American south. So what makes you think that your factually inferior athletes would dominate Rugby?

[mikiroony]

This guy could be in the OLYMPICS and win twice! (Thank God for Rugby in London 2012). I bet no athlete would outrun him on the 100 meters competition.

[rjjjpj2312]

He was the best a true speedster carrying the Samoan Tattoo with him to the top..well done Lome proud of you mate

[MrKatene]

#is faster than you!

[N3atZ]

see nonu putting in some work too,hope we have poeple running off him like lome does at this world cup

[liosua86]

Damn hes fast! Flash just called and wanted you to show him the true meaning of FAST!

[superbill3001]

i love this guy playing for the canes, just amazing how he never played rugby in high school was to bizzy playing basketball then plays pro rugby. straight up gifted.

[theephraimite]

I was never a fan of Lome, and at times he ticked me off when he was playing for Samoa. Part of the irritation comes from the fact that he seems to have played well for Wellington and other teams but when he plays for Samoa, he hardly does anything other than make a breakable, weak tackle. But after all, I wish him the best that life has left for him in his career.

[Nabzvilleboy5]

gud game dat match.... when he played 4 da hurricanes against the blues! he played against Rokocoko and showed he had da skills and speed to match him!

Pacific Power... Wot say

[dulanthadissanayake]

No way....do u think he can run with a cheetah like habana?

[200sxc1]

01:45 PURE SPEED yea boi

[soleeisoufika101]

[ParadoxMega124]

[ParadoxMega124]

Malo Lomz Samoa Represent

[NaturesSneakySavaage]

damn, now imagine if he opened his stride.

[lepodoug]

dont hate



[TanSupaman]

worst tackler i've ever seen.

[8352919]

Such a Shame The Al Black's did not give him an opportunity!

[KCHIEFTAN]

@8352919 I think he chose to play for Samoa, so was not eligible for the All Blacks even though he was probably best winger in New Zealand during his heyday.

[samoantoa08]

nah he never wanted to play for the all blacks..das why i admire him..everybody knows u get more benefits playin for all blacks das why a lot of samoans play for them even if they moved there or what not..but lome stayed true to his roots and played for samoa even tho he was born and raised in NZ..

[napi3r1]

far hes a pretty mean winger y did hurricanes let him go

[phillipst004569]

I love at 2:18 how he is just 'No biggie....'

[sssbbbwww30]

i think pesamino would be the fastest, just because of the fact he was a sprinter

[Djshava]

i fink his way faster den pesimino

[samoantoa08]

i think mikale is faster but lome definitely has better agility, juking ability, and acceleration

[NLthethief]

Raw talent !

[DamnNative1976]

Howlett & Rococoko had nothing on this guy!!! On par or better with Habana

[salflashy13]

this guy fastest samoan player ever.he had some major speed.amazing.close behind him would be david lemi and sailosi tagicakibau.then pesamino.

[ElTrollBoy]

too bad he played for Wellington and the Hurricanes

he was never going to get anywhere doing that

[Ropeti94]

Must be samoan chooohoo:)

[fcukmebiatch]

he is the fastest

[qweensosefiinahgee]

woh hes got fast legs lols

[siwooot]

@qweensosefiinahgee most of the clips have been sped up

[Kariraa]

3:25!!!

[hamoboii2010]

he had da biggest bench out of all nz super 12 players in his tyme!!

[sssbbbwww30]

@hamoboii2010 how much did he bench?

[tektonikkingcountry1]

the man str8 up

[johnnytanini]

Lome Far too Shit was a pretty mediocre player at best. Had speed and nothing else.

[mangimosbii]

wow he's real good skillful and so fast..but some of the moves he does especially those that are replayed are common in rugby league..Union still has to catch up on the skills that Rugby league players posess

[1997SoldierBoy]

2:40 WOW!!!!!!!

[KaptainSima]

im 8 years old, asian, 8"1 and i guess im faster then this..glad im sittin behind my screen

[T0NGAN676]

he was REAL good

[npet021]

the man

[SpunkOnYoMom]

Rudi Wulf is probably the best & most well rounded samoan winger right now,Alot might argue Leila Masaga who is exceptional on attack but is questionable on defense..Yeah Lome was good,fast as hell but Mr Handbrakes alot,I wish he would smash it up sometimes and test the defense abit more..Because when he did he always created gaps,But he hardly did..Anyways good video uce..

[KCHIEFTAN]

0:32 he gave Rococoko a taste of his own medicine haha.

[raggedtraveler]

anyone remember when he leapfrogged Habana in the 07 world cup? dude is definitely a beast

[Chris23688]

to bad he cant tackle

[lkrrepz]

[rellyrelz321]

[NRLsuperstar8]

yeah boi st pats town thats how we do it bitches

[MrMsubo]

This guy is so blitz omg. I'm from S.A and I rate this guy can show Bryan Habana a good time

[boycey134]

wha the tune name ??

[iosuadotcom]

wait but he's slow as on rugby 08.

and does better with hurricanes then when he's playing with samoa

[allblacks1235]

i no yeah

[iosuadotcom]

he made lote look like shit at 0:18. and his handling is awesomeness!

[wivak92]

now datz speed... he had evrything speed, step, swerve, chip and chase and awesome handling skills

[PacificKingz]

FOBZ 4 LIFE

[SixStepKevyKutBak]

Hey you fellahs should search " LF Highlights " It's a heap of Lome Fa'atau's sweet momnets playing for Glasgow!!!

[sham1293]

uso raw...but no lie...out of polynesian rugby, fiji got the fatsests.....respect

[MaikaIDB]

True except Fijians are melanesian.

[wlatu69]

Maybe that tells you alot about how teams give him that opportunity to do well in games. Playing in the Super14 where he had either Nono or Umaga on his inside is why he did well in the Super14. They made his job very easy where all he had to do is run his line, where as for the samoan team didnt.. But thats just my oppinion, what you guys think?

[sfaatamalii]

thats true but Samoa used alot of power run n there fowards do most of da running...

his offense is pretty good dont get me wrong but he's deffense against habana was awlfu man...:"( n he got sum good player around him too in samoa sapolu, mapusua, kevin william, sum i 4got there names...lol anyways he owe me a new tv @ lome fa'atau...bahahaha i smashed my tv durin SA n SAMOA!Grrrrrr

[fobcrusader14]

yeah your right mate..

that's why we lost against Tonga in the world cup 2007... we tried to front up with tongaz loose forward.. where our loose forwards are mobile not hard out physical... thats where we got smashed!..

we needed to use our backs..as you can see in this video our backs are way more classier and have way more experience than Tongaz backs...

[SixStepKevyKutBak]

habana's too small to grab.. Have you ever tried to catch the small guy in a rugby game? especially when they're faster than you? thats what happened to fa'atau.. I don't even think Brian the man could've marked him. I reckon Lima would've done a much better job, but he couldn't prevent every single try. Probably more than fa'atau, but he'd miss some

[SixStepKevyKutBak]

I fully agree with you here. I'm a Sa fan, and I aint hating on the centres in the Sa team.. I reckon the problem with the manu team is how our wingers are used.. If we had nonu and umaga as centres, tuilagi and faatau, even tagicakibau would be alot more successful. success of the wingers depends on the skills of the centres

[sfaatamalii]

mapusua or sapolu will do fine at center too since da legend brian lima retired :'( but nonu n umaga will be awesome too but i know is not gonna happen... guess what! pesamino is on 15's now chooohooo so all he needs to work on geeting sum muscle on n workin on his defence... letz see who they gonna pick wen november comez during their tour to da northen hamsphere... cant wait!chooohooo GO MANU SAMOA!

[SixStepKevyKutBak]

November? For real?? Who are they playing, and please don't tell me it's against the fucking clubs, and not the internationals?

[sfaatamalii]

wales, france n scottland... upset in da makin go manu

[sfaatamalii]

oh not scottland i meant italy... so wales, france n italy...

[SixStepKevyKutBak]

shot uce

[SixStepKevyKutBak]

1:45 & 2:09 .. too much speed!

[gleninnes01]

too bad he didnt perform as well as for samoa as he did for the canes

[sfaatamalii]

true dat man in da world cup he was awful...='( tackle wise but he can run like there's no tomorrow...

[GSD4U]

whats the song m8?

[fobcrusader14]

Murphy Lee and T-Pain - My Shoes

[boloolemaile62]

LOMZ is the man..

[motu852]

Itll be way koo if he can hit..

other than that uso is a real speedster..

malo sole!..

[waterszappa]

man he wasnt jus quick he had skills, guys like digby ioane is jus a really explosive winger, this guy could pass, flick pass, chip and chase, an all round winger with gas wish this uso was bac in super 14

[RuFFNuTTProductionz]

@waterszappa agree completely, kama was shocking on defence haha but made up for them with tries. Hardly ever see good tries from the Canes now.

[boloolemaile62]

malo lava lomz!

[fobcrusader14]

Sorry again guys this is the final copy . Had a few technical difficulties. Cheers!
