Biography:

Dragon #273

An Otahuhu Leopards junior, Faitala-Mariner linked up with the Red V in 2024 after eight seasons as a Bulldog.

A Junior Kiwi, Faitala-Mariner made his NRL debut for the Warriors against the Titans in Round 8, 2015 and appeared in 11 matches throughout his rookie campaign.

An explosive forward, he joined the Bulldogs mid-way through 2016 before making his international debut for Samoa the following week.

His Kiwis debut came a little over two years later before linking back up with the Samoan side for their midseason win over the Kumuls in 2019.

Boasting a resumé that includes a quartet of internationals, 134 NRL games, and a stint as the Bulldogs’ club captain, the 31-year-old is contracted to the club until at least the end of 2025 season.
