Biography
Tongan-born, Bundaberg (Queensland) junior was used mainly as an interchange forward in three seasons with the Melbourne Storm before the breakthrough 2006 season. Kaufusi was the starting prop for Melbourne in the club’s grand final loss to Brisbane and was a surprise selection in the Australian Tri-Nations squad given that he had not yet represented Queensland. The unheralded prop made his Test debut, in his only match of the series, from the interchange bench in Australia’s 33-10 win over Great Britain in Brisbane.
