Wallace Sititi: All Black on the unexpected honour of being named All Blacks Player of the Year

No one was more surprised by Wallace Sititi's breakthrough rugby season than Wallace Sititi.  After earning the World Rugby Breakthrough Player of the Year, Sititi also added the All Blacks Player of the Year award to his stellar 2024.  The Chiefs number eight agrees that his stunning run-up to a starting test spot in his debut Super Rugby Pacific season was a big shock.  He told Piney it wasn’t a sentence he could’ve imagined hearing six months ago.  “It’s definitely unexpected, and yeah, just grateful that I was able to, you know, have the season I had.”  LISTEN ABOVE  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
