George Moala has played every minute of every game for Auckland this season, and the team's ironman has also just inked a new Super Rugby deal with the Blues as reward for his solid 2014 ITM Cup.
The 23-year-old left wing, who has also turned out at centre this season, has scored two tries and invariably proven a handful for opposition defensive lines with his line-breaking ability.
"More game time allows me to perform better. We've got a good, young talented backline which helps. The young guys are really confident and vocal," said Moala.
He does admit that the inclement weather has meant the backs haven't been consistently able to show their attacking skills, and he has needed to come off the wing in search of work.
Moala recalls well the hurt Auckland felt after a 42-24 hiding at the hands of Waikato last year, and hints there might be a touch of payback in the air for tomorrow's night's Premiership clash at Eden Park. "The boys will be looking to get one up on them."
