Description
With more than 50 test matches at fullback under his belt, Mils Muliaina is the most capped All Blacks No.15 of all time. Muliaina combines pace and a dangerous counterattacking ability with dependability and strong positional play at the back for New Zealand. He also has the speed and rugby nous to play at the highest level at either wing or centre. He has scored 21 test tries for the All Blacks, which places him amongst the top 10 all-time test tryscorers for New Zealand. Mils Muliaina's biography will plot a highly unusual path to the pinnacle of New Zealand rugby. Born in Samoa, Muliaina's family moved to Invercargill when he was a young boy. He played through the age grades in Southland before moving north to Auckland and boarding at Kelston Boys' High. A veteran of two World Cup campaigns with the All Blacks, Muliaina will cast a critical eye across the state of the game in New Zealand and what the All Blacks have to do to win the 2011 Cup.
