Posolo Tuilagi, Manu's 19-year-old nephew, made his debut for France in the Guinness Six Nations match against Ireland, weighing over 145kg. He replaced Romain Taofifenua on the bench due to illness. Tuilagi is the youngest forward to represent France in the competition and impressed on his first outing for France. Manu Tuilagi, who is injured, watched his nephew's debut in Marseille. Posolo sought out his father in the stands after making his debut, and the Tuilagi family has now played for three nations: Samoa, England, and France.
