Alfie Coop 🫡

🔥 MEET THE PLAYER | ALFIE COOP 🔥

Next up, we catch up with Alfie Coop from Athletic Marist Rugby Club to find out what drives one of our sharp-shooting No. 9s.

🏉 Pregame Ritual:
Alfie likes to get out onto the field early, putting in extra reps with his box kicks and passing from the base to make sure he's dialled in before kickoff.

💬 Best Advice:
"Focus on what you can control and let the rest happen." Wise words from his mum that have become his mindset every time he pulls on the jersey, helping keep him calm under pressure.

⚡ Rugby Legend Comparison:
Alfie sees similarities with Fumiaki Tanaka—proving that size doesn't define impact. With lightning-fast service from the ruck, sharp decision-making, and a fearless attitude, he's always looking to keep the tempo high and his team on the front foot.

Keep an eye on Alfie throughout the tour as he looks to make his mark in the green and white. 💚🤍

One last get-together to celebrate the season 🍻🏆

Check out that number 9 in the New Zealand Marist line up! Go well Alfie Coop!
