After showing impressive form for the Wesley College 1st XV, was enticed to Christchurch to join the Canterbury Academy.[2] Laulala played 1st XV rugby with several future professional sportsmen, including former All Blacks, Malakai Fekitoa, Charles Piutau and Augustine Pulu, as well as his current All Black teammate, Karl Tu'inukuafe. Laulala's brothers, Casey Laulala and Luteru Laulala have also had careers in professional rugby. Casey is also a former All Black that last played international rugby in 2006. The Laulala brothers are one of 57 sets of brothers to become All Blacks. Playing careerEarly careerLaulala made his ITM cup debut in 2011 in a Ranfurly Shield defence against North Otago. His performances for his province have seen him named in the Crusaders squad for the 2013 Super Rugby season.[3][4] Laulala made his Super Rugby debut for the Crusaders in 2013 against the Chiefs. Laulala announced in 2015 that the Chiefs would become his new team in 2016. Laulala was selected as part of the 41-man wider training squad for the 2015 All Blacks squad. Laulala made his debut for New Zealand in the first test match of the year against Manu Samoa in Apia on 8 July, replacing Owen Franks off the bench in the 57th minute, with the All Blacks going on to win against Manu Samoa by 25-16. He played another 3 tests off the bench for the All Blacks in 2015 but narrowly missed out on selection for the 2015 Rugby World Cup. Laulala had a serious knee injury at the start of the 2016 season, so did not play for the Chiefs, or the All Blacks for the whole of 2016, with All Black teammates Nehe Milner-Skudder, Charlie Ngatai and James Broadhurst, missing the 2016 All Black season too. 2017-2018Laulala returned to Super Rugby in 2017 and started in most games for the Chiefs that year, including a 64-minute performance in the game against the touring British and Irish Lions on 20 June 2017, which the Chiefs lost 34-6. Because of his horror run of injuries, Laulala was not selected for the All Blacks again until the 2017 Rugby Championship, following Charlie Faumuina's move to Toulouse in France. In surprise to much of the public, Laulala was called in to start at 3 at the last minute for the second Bledisloe Cup test against Australia, which was a 35-29 win, following 95-test veteran Owen Franks tearing his Achilles' tendon the day before the match. Laulala's 61-minute performance was widely acclaimed after winning several opposing scrums for the All Blacks.[5] Laulala became a regular starter for New Zealand in Franks' absence and started in every remaining test of the year following Franks' injury, making a total of nine test appearances for the All Blacks in 2017. Laulala fractured his forearm in a 27-21 win against the Blues in round three of the 2018 Super Rugby season. Laulala was expected to be out of professional rugby for 8–12 weeks, but has still not recovered from injury. Laulala failed to make the field for the All Blacks during the 2018 mid-year tests and was not selected due to injury, much like his injured Chiefs teammate Kane Hames. Continued delays in Laulala's recovery also saw him miss the 2018 Rugby Championship, with another one of his Chiefs teammates, Angus Ta'avao, making his debut for the All Blacks while Laulala was out injured. In the dying stages of the 2018 Mitre 10 Cup, he finally made a return from his broken arm, for Counties Manukau.[6] Although Counties Manukau failed to make the playoffs, Laulala did enough to convince All Black Head Coach, Steve Hansen, to re-select him. Laulala was named in the extended 51-man squad for the 2018 end-of-year tour and was subsequently given a spot on the bench for the third Bledisloe Cup test against Australia's Wallabies for 2018, displacing Ofa Tu'ungafasi from the match-day 23. Laulala replaced Owen Franks in the 52nd minute against the Wallabies, completing his comeback to international rugby. The All Blacks beat the Wallabies, 37-20. [7] A strong performance against Australia saw Laulala replace Franks in two crucial tests during the tour, against England and Ireland, the latter of whom defeated New Zealand for only the second time in history, with the All Blacks losing 9-16. Laulala was out-performed by his opposites, Cian Healy and Jack McGrath, but still performed fine. After a long injury-plagued year, Laulala earned a start for the final test of the tour, which was only his fourth test of 2018. The final test on tour took place at Stadio Olimpico at Rome in Italy. The All Blacks finished the year off with a 66-3 win over Italy. Laulala contributed a 54-minute performance towards the win against Italy and was replaced by Angus Ta'avao after a good game.[8] References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.canterburyrugby.co.nz/profile/nepo-laulala/129/player-details.aspx | title=Nepo Laulala Canterbury profile | accessdate=2 November 2012 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130207113030/http://www.canterburyrugby.co.nz/profile/nepo-laulala/129/player-details.aspx | archivedate=7 February 2013 | df=dmy-all }} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://rugbylinks.co.uk/super-rugby-profile-crusaders-nepo-laulala-209.html | title=Super Rugby Profile: Crusaders – Nepo Laulala | accessdate=28 November 2012 }} 3. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.crusaders.co.nz/news/2013-investec-super-rugby-crusaders-squad-announced/596/news.aspx | title=2013 Investec Super Rugby Crusaders squad announced | accessdate=2 November 2012 }} 4. ^{{cite web | url=http://crusaders.co.nz/the-team/nepo-laulala | title=Nepo Laulala Crusaders Player Profile | accessdate=10 December 2012 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130207235501/http://crusaders.co.nz/the-team/nepo-laulala | archivedate=7 February 2013 | df=dmy-all }} 5. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11911840 | title= Player Ratings: All Blacks v Wallabies - NZ Herald | accessdate=15 February 2017 }} 6. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/107791675/all-blacks-prop-nepo-laulala-back-for-counties-after-months-out-with-broken-arm| title= All Blacks prop Nepo Laulala returns for Counties after months out with broken arm | accessdate=16 December 2018 }} 7. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/sport/2018/11/all-blacks-nepo-laulala-leaves-teammates-in-awe-with-ridiculous-squat.html | title= All Blacks: Nepo Laulala leaves teammates in awe with ridiculous squat| accessdate=16 December 2018 }} 8. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/sport/2018/11/brad-lewis-how-the-all-blacks-rated-against-italy.html| title= Brad Lewis: How the All Blacks rated against Italy| accessdate=16 December 2018 }} External links
