Big Papa backs young Benaiah Ioelu to impact the game against Tonga XIII at Suncorp Stadium.
While all the talk is centred on the battle of the giants when Toa Samoa sets out to topple Tonga XIII at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday, it's one of their smallest who could hold the key to victory.
Amid the 30-degree temperatures and humidity expected in Brisbane on game day, forward fatigue will be a factor, and senior leader Josh Papalii has anointed young gun Benaiah Ioelu to play a major role off the bench in breaking the game open.
"He doesn't have an 'eight-pack' for no reason, so he can go out there, play his game and use the forwards as a real big driver to play footy," Papalii said of the interchange hooker.
