Coaching Bio

I am a former Australian Wallabies, ACT Brumbies and Queensland Reds Super Rugby player who has been playing professionally for the last 15 years. I have also played for the Australian Mens Sevens Rugby team and have a great passion of passing on knowledge I have acquired to the next generation or just anyone who takes interest in the game of Rugby Union.

Having been born and raised in Fiji, never did I think I would get the opportunity to play Rugby Union overseas, let alone professionally across 4 countries in both the South and Northern Hemispheres. I started my journey in Waikato, New Zealand, then onto Canberra to join the ACT Brumbies in 2011, who I was fortunate to represent for 9 seasons with a 5 month stint in Northern Ireland for Ulster in 2018. A season with Queensland Reds followed in 2020 before Covid 19 forced a move to Biarritz, France, where I have been for the last 3 years. In my years of playing rugby, I have been blessed with many learnings along the way from great coaches and players at both provincial and international levels in different parts of the world. It is a passion of mine to pass on my knowledge onto the next generation and seeing other players grow and become better. For all that Rugby has given me, it will be nothing short of amazing to be able to give back in this capacity in coaching others and growing the game.

Andrew - 27-06-2025

What an amazing session for my son James. What privilege to be taught rugby skills by a wallabies legend. Henry was so engaging and a wealth of knowledge and tips and very generous with his time. The session was so well planned out and appropriate for my 12yo son. Looking forward to the next session.

Henry was not only highly engaging and knowledgeable, but also alot of fun to work with. It was a fantastic experience, and I believe we gained valuable insights from his expertise during the session. Looking forward to working with Henry again.
