Wales coach Warren Gatland believes sport in Sydney and rugby in Australia needed a superstar like Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii - and so does the world game.
The New Zealander revealed on Thursday just what a fan he is of the Wallabies' thrilling new outside centre -- even if Suaalii might just end up being the player to help shove him out of a job in Cardiff when buoyant Australia visit the Principality Stadium on Sunday.
The hype hasn't stopped flowing around the reintroduction of the 21-year-old to union after his multi-million dollar cross-code move from the NRL, with even Wales centre Ben Thomas admitting to have been following the young star since he was at the Roosters.
