Atasi Lafai started playing backyard footy at a young age with her brothers, including former NRL player Tim Lafai. The Waratahs lock was named player of the Super Rugby Women’s grand final in April, 2024 – a remarkable turnaround having overcome two ACL injuries, a serious ankle injury, a broken collarbone and freak eye injury in recent years. Convinced her career was over, Lafai was a consistent mainstay in the Wallaroos 2024 squad and will be pushing for selection at the 2025 Rugby World Cup.
