LOTE TUQIRI did nothing but enhance his standing as one of the game's leading wingers during another strong season at Super 14 and Test level.

Tuqiri played a leading role in helping the Waratahs to a Super 14 semi-final appearance before playing in all but one of the Wallabies' winter Test matches.

Tuqiri scored four tries for the Wallabies this season, including a brilliant double during a man of the match performance against the All Blacks in Auckland, taking his career strike rate to 25 tries in 46 matches.

In just his fourth year of rugby, Tuqiri is in line to bring up his 50th Test appearance during the Spring Tour. A world class finisher who has established himself as an integral part of the Wallabies attacking machine.
