Exciting young back Tolu Koula has made a huge impression in just two years in the NRL.
Tolu has been a revelation in the centres or at full-back with his blistering speed and ability to beat the defence after coming through Manly's Harold Matthews and SG Ball teams.
A Test player with Tonga, Tolu follows in the footsteps of his parents who represented Tonga at the Barcelona, Atlanta, and Sydney Olympic Games.
His Dad, Toluta'u, competed in the men's 100m competition and mum, Anna, in the hurdles and long jump.
Tolu has been signed for a further three years from the end of the 2024 season.
