Glen Fisiiahi is a New Zealand rugby league player who currently plays professionally for the New Zealand Warriors.
Early years
Fisiiahi is from a well known league family that includes the twin brothers Paul and David Fisiiahi. He was an junior in Auckland Rugby League competitions and represented the Counties Manukau under-18's.
Fisiiahi also played rugby union at his high school, Wesley College, and represented the New Zealand Secondary Schools Sevens side. He was the school's sports dux in 2008.
While playing for the Junior Warriors Fisiiahi completed a Diploma in Sport and Recreation at AUT University.
Playing career
He made his debut for the New Zealand Warriors Toyota Cup side in 2009, playing in three matches. He also played for the Auckland Vulcans in the NSW Cup. In 2010 he became one of the stars of the side, scoring 20 tries in 26 matches, and was a part of the grand final winning team. He was also involved in an embarassing moment that saw him celebrate a try before scoring, only to be tackled and have the ball knocked out of his hands. At the end of 2010 Fisiiahi was named in the Junior Kiwis squad that drew a two match series with the Junior Kangaroos.
After scoring five tries in four trials during the 2011 pre-season, Fisiiahi made his National Rugby League debut for the Warriors in Round 1 of the 2011 season against the Parramatta Eels at Eden Park. Fisiiahi was named ahead of Kevin Locke, Krisnan Inu and Bill Tupou. After playing only one NRL match Fisiiahi signed a four year deal to keep him at the Warriors until the end of 2015.
