Aholoka Toia, the younger brother of centre and Queensland representative Robert, has been rewarded for a breakout campaign in reserve-grade with his first NRL<\/a> pre-season.<\/p>\n According to sources,\u00a0Zero Tackle\u00a0understands that Aholoka will undertake his first pre-season with the first-grade squad in the coming days as he moves one step closer to joining his brother in the NRL<\/a>.<\/p>\n Only 20, Toia is much bigger in stature than his older brother, and the hard-working middle has already caught the attention of club officials and teammates as a player to watch over the next few years.<\/p>\n Appearing in 11 NSW Cup<\/a> matches during the 2025 season, he averaged 14 tackles and 52 running metres per game, to go with seven tackle busts and 236.6 total post-contact metres.<\/p>\n “He’s a bit of a Spencer Leinu type build and play style. He’s pretty powerful and hopefully he gets some NRL<\/a> experience soon,” Robert Toia said previously.<\/a><\/p>\n “To be honest, I used to win the battles against him, but my two older brothers used to win the battles against me.”<\/p>\n
