Discussion within the Broncos camp has reignited conversations around the need for cultural mentors to support Pacific players, something Sam and Tinirau say has been a long-running discussion, particularly when you look at the huge gap between the number of Pasifika players and Pasifika coaching staff.Over in Fiji, Nemani Nadolo Kuridrani talks about the importance of looking after the human within the player, as the Fijian Drua make history by bringing coaches through the Fiji Rugby coaching pathway into assistant coaching roles for the first time, marking a significant step towards greater Pacific representation in the coaching spaces of Super Rugby.And Sala Togatuki offers a player’s perspective on what it really means to back your teammates; it’s not always about the physical stuff, but also about the energy you bring and the support you give.
