The greatest attacking player in rugby history. Rokocoko said it. Brian O'Driscoll said it. Rene Ranger said it. Sivivatu said it. I am not going to argue.

One of the wing positions in the greatest Rugby team of all time BELONGS to this freak of a man. a purebred wing, through and through.

He had a beer belly and was still burning fools. Fijian rugby players seem to mature late anyway and stay fit in old age

even as a lil kid when was about 9 years old in year 4 i was selling chocolates when the rwc was on, i never knew who he was but my perants were watching the game and i came in and my dad was cheering and it was when caucau scored that first try for Scotland , but i seen the replay, and instantly thought he was cool, and as time went on i still didnt know who he was about 5 years later, my brother showed me fastest rugby players in rugby, and i seen his try and memories just came back to me, it was a good moment, caucau had an impact on my life

The Greatest attacking player ever!! and I grew up idolizing guys like Christian Cullen and Jonah Lomu!! He's just the Apex of the wingers pyramid, bless with blistering speed, strength and a Running IQ second to no one.

most talented player who waisted his opportunities for 10 years. so sad. he could have been the greatest player of the last decade.

Have been fortunate to watch some great try scoring wingers in my time but none come close to Rupeni in his prime.

Christian Cullen was one of the grestest runners i have ever seen and i find that he and Caucau shared a similar running technique and swerve. Both would glide past defenders with ease, step you before you even realised they had stepped you and go from a jog to top speed in a blink of an eye. The big difference though that puts Caucau as the most devasting and gifted ball runner i've ever seen is that he was a bit quicker than Cullen who was lightning all on his own. And Caucau had an extra 10-15kgs on Cullen which to me makes Caucaunibuca the most freakish rugby talent ever.

we all make mistakes,if we fall ninety nine times stand up 100 times, nothing is Impossible to God,just wait and see what is in store when God Almighty is in control,Bless you in fijian "miau",maka ni dua na ka mena rawa vakarawarawa,vinaka na sasaga kei na matavuvale...."God Bless your family Rup......you are doing it for your family especially your children,"SKY IS THE LIMIT " bro......

Best wishes to you and your family 'rups'...talent is only wasted when it is not used.Your kids need a good role model who never quits and you can be that for them.Past mkstakes are where they belong...in the past.We your fans will stand by you no matter what.God Bless you my brother.Kalougata tiko ga.

met him in france.. friendliest guy shook hands with all my friends even posed for a photo. BULA!

One of the biggest "what if" stories.

I remember the late Dr Taka once describe Caucau as follows: Vunibaka + Delasau = CAUCAU.. Food for thought Two great Fijian Wingers and yet......

definitely the most devastating winger to play the game, sometimes 15 men werent enough to stop him but his potential was always greater then his effort.

I really hope we get to see footage of his 2001 - 2002 tries for Northland

Man imagine if lomu and cacau were in the same team😅

The greatest rugby player I've ever seen

The most unstoppable player ever. For such a short period of time. Hope to see more of his unbelievable talent.

Loved using this beast on the various rugby games on ps2, especially on career mode way back in the day. He was always prolific on the wing. Such a humble man. Glad he's back here in NZ.

Awesome story, glad to see he's back. Was a shame he lacked the motivation in his prime but he'll be the best kind of legend when his time has passed. Sweet to see him linking up with Ranger too ;)

Underachieved for most of his career. Would have been the greatest winger ever if he lived up to his potential

definately was a fav of mine Wen he was in his prime

Yes you still got it mate. Bulla!

Taniwhas to the max!! was the best player to watch back in the day, Rupeni and Carlos were a match made in heaven

Such a great player he should have just stayed in NZ. Probably would have played more for Fiji if he had.

love watching this guy play. if only he played more game's. him and lomu in one team wish that happened.

You are still the man!!!

Had he come to England he would have made himself a fortune. . . .such a shame really, a good advisor was what he needed. . .

1:44 made me laugh!! One fat guy putting two guys in his rear view mirror. hahaha Muc love Caucau. Good Luck!!!

Nothing is too late as-long as you are alive and can still breathing . Courage rups fiji got talents even at old age,they say life begins at 40..Kalougata tiko bro

good on you brother hope too see you in the blues wider training squad

my man

good to see him looking leaner and fit again

A player who could win a game single handedly

not enough kava in the tank anymore but still got skills bula from te rarawa rugby mate Ooooootahz,hope see you soon back up hear in far north,,,,awaz,bubble

This guy was Deceptively fast and his acceleration was was nek level.

Nice rupeni

YEWWW RUPENI!!!

na brother his still got skills , and plus the falla cant be blamed for wanting to go back to Fiji or even playing for them , I haven't been to Fiji for 8 years ever since I came to Dubai , but when I went back last 3 months ago I didn't wanna come back haha , Fiji is the place to be brother. we might be lacking money wise but we still happy , but he is back and we should be happy

We both hate training one of my favourite players

Vanuinui vinaka nomu sasaga rup Sega ni dua na ka e dredre!!

There will not be another Rupeni caucau

at least he made a living out of his talent.

So let me just get this straight, one of the greatest attacking players in history, played in both SH & NH comps, regards the SH one as being played at a higher level, correct? I suppose he didn't know that in the NH the quality of rugby is actually determined by the number of people in the stand singing songs, that live in high population density countries, with easy access to public transport networks........ Yeah, I'm happy with the NH thinking that's the metric by which the sport is evaluated, as its worked out to be a giant grin maker for the SH.

I'm glad his back playing rugby and most importantly giving it his all. Such a shame he never did it in his prime though because it is one of the biggest wastes of natural sporting ability I've ever.

The best there never was

the one thatr got away

i remember blazing up wif him lol stoned fijian = try time

Haters stop hatin till you've walked a mile in his shoes.......

Wananavu Rups

Vakanuinui vinaka e agen!!!

wananavu dreu, vanuinui vinaka.

maumau sara...

Imagine if he stayed normal!!

You should face criminal charges for wasting talent like that.

As a massive fan im really dissapointed with how he left nz and decided abandoned fiji. WHY?!@ Wasted talent. Perfect example of what happens when you think your bigger then the game. Good news, at least as he said he as 3 kids. Fingers cross at least 1 of them plays out their career for the ... wallabies (All blacks most likely though).

He could of earned a lot more than he did if he stayed focused and disciplined off filled.

Could had been better than Lomu.

what a waste of a talent. this guy would be taking over Lomu if he didnt mess up. hope to see him in super rugby.

he lost the plot!started dressing as a lady

at least he made a living out of his talent.
