MC Sports have secured the signature of Samoan International Fautua Otto. He has appeared recently during the 2010 Pacific Nations Cup in internationals against Japan, Tonga and Fiji and was a try scoring success on the Northern Hemisphere Tour 2010. He started in the Centre against Japan but is also a high quality Winger. He was the leading try scorer and an important figure on the IRB 7's circuit last season as Samoa claimed their first ever world title. He is very very quick with good game awareness and typical strong defence. Tua is a quiet respectful individual who coaches will enjoy having in their squad. In the modern age he is able to play a strong running inside centre game or use his elusiveness and searing pace outside or on the wing to devastating effect. He is a right footed kicker with an 80% success rate at goal. He is a committed dedicated person with a respectful character, he is single with no dependents.
"Tua" made a try scoring appearance at Twickenham against England during November 2010 and scored a long distance much admired try in the mid week match against Connacht with further tries against the Combined Services. One of Samoa's success stories on the 2010 Northern Hemisphere Tour he emerged as a strong candidate to play in the Centre or on the Wing during Samoa's World Cup campaign in New Zealand 2011.
Tua has signed to play for Bristol RFC after the 2011 Rugby World Cup
