Proudly representing and advocating for his heritage earlier this year in the Unite for Tonga pre-season trial match, the front-rower will don the red and white in England. 

Kaufusi has previously played for Tonga in three International Test matches throughout 2015 to 2017 before going on to play for Australia in the 2017 World Cup. Having switched allegiance, he will appear in Tonga’s opening match of the Cup on October 19.
