Tall, strong and with great footwork, Daniel has the ability to grab some AFL type marks and become a real crowd favourite. He has applied himself diligently across all aspects of professional football and we look forward to him continuing to be a key contributor in the years to come.� Tupou played three NRL games in 2012, one of which he scored a hat-trick of tries against the Wests Tigers in Round 25, and was named NSW Cup Winger of the Year. |
