Toa Halafihi describes Taranaki forwards as a familyMarty Melville Toa Halafihi crashes over for the match winning try against Auckland. Things were still sinking in for Taranaki No 8 Toa Halafihi half an hour after he scored a last minute match winning try in their dramatic 35-32 win over Auckland at Yarrow Stadium. Halafihi, one of the game's outstanding players, burst off the back of a 5m scrum and went through the Auckland defence to guarantee Taranaki a Mitre 10 Cup home semifinal. We have this thing we talk about called matavuvale, which is Fijian for family, and that means we give it all for each other. "We are pretty stoked about how things are going together but we just have to keep it going for next week."
