Ma'a Nonu - Midfield Beast

Ma'a Nonu was a destructive midfielder. He was quite short and stocky, but had power and pace to burn. He was quick off the mark for a big man and could easily cut through opposition defenses. After his breakthrough year in 2003, he struggled to cement himself as a regular All Black. He worked on his kicking and passing game and became a All Black regular in 2008 and he dominated that position until he scored his final try in his final test for the All Blacks in the 2015 RWC final.

Hi combination with Conrad Smith should rank as one of the greatest centre pairings ever.

What a great player.

Thanks for watching and enjoy!
