Another of the signings made by Steve Diamond in his first summer back at Sale, Johnny is a highly-rated Samoa international. Since making his debut in the New Zealand Provincial Championship in 2004, he has made over 50 appearances for Manawatu and also picked up Super 14 experience with the Highlanders. On signing him, Diamond said: "Johnny is a great signing for us. I have had my eye on him for some time. He is a great defender and a great line breaker with ball in hand. Fans will remember when we signed Graeme Bond nine years ago and what an impact he had. Johnny is a very similar player and we have high hopes for him."
