But unlike some of the other former and current NRL players to have been stitched up by the duo, Asofa-Solomona proved he is \u201csmarter\u201d than he looks as he had the last laugh. <\/p>\n

Asofa-Solomona returns to the ring this Sunday against Jarrod Wallace as part of Tim Tszyu\u2019s undercard and landed in Sydney, only to very quickly realise this was far from a normal chauffeur service.<\/p>\n
Instead, Fletch and Hindy enlisted a bit of help to try and prank Asofa-Solomona. The key word there being try because while they were left guessing early on, the towering front rower turned fighter made it clear at the very end of the journey that he had not been fooled.<\/p>\n
Instead, Asofa-Solomona could see the prank coming and ended up spotting the hidden camera early on, telling Fletch and Hindy: \u201cYou tried to get me, aye?\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m smarter than I look boys,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n
Still, it made for an amusing watch as Fletch and Hindy\u2019s driver, with an earpiece in being fed lines from the duo, tried his best to get under Asofa-Solomona\u2019s skin.<\/p>\n
It started with commentary on the size of the heavyweight\u2019s head, claiming he was blocking his vision while driving.<\/p>\n
‘That’s why they sacked him’ | 04:01<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re f***ing head is pretty big, can you just move that way? I can\u2019t see out the back,\u201d he said, later asking if Asofa-Solomona \u201cgets charged twice for your haircuts\u201d.<\/p>\n
Then attention turned to Asofa-Solomona\u2019s Melbourne exit, with the driver asking if he left the club or was \u201csacked\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd is that why you\u2019re fighting,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Fletch and Hindy then got the driver to pretend to fall asleep and stop in traffic, while sitting right behind them in a trailing card and honking on their horn. <\/p>\n
They then started to follow Asofa-Solomona, pretending to be infuriated by the car\u2019s antics, prompting the driver to exclaim: \u201cIf I have to fight here, don\u2019t touch him. I don\u2019t want it to be like Bali again\u201d, referencing the Kiwi\u2019s involvement in a brawl outside of a Bali club. <\/p>\n
But Asofa-Solomona couldn\u2019t be fooled, and in the end it was the former Storm forward who had the last laugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bryan Fletcher and Nathan Hindmarsh were back at it again, with Nelson Asofa-Solomona the latest target of their…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":587538,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[571],"tags":[64,63,802,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-587537","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-boxing","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/587537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=587537"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/587537\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/587538"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=587537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=587537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=587537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
