This kid would be Tony Robinson type talent in the modern era.

[qjju]

It is just uncanny how similar he seems to be to Tua and Bryce from the way he plays all the way down to how he acts and some of his mannerisms. Alabama is going to push extremely hard for him.

Aww man I love this kids already & we are only a minute & thirty-five seconds into the interview

I'amaleava. It means "bearded fish" in Samoan...ava also means beer or the traditional kava drink... so it could mean fish with beer. But most likely it's bearded fish since Polynesians have alot in common with Native Americans in the way of naming.

Pronounced - Ee'ah - mah- leh- ah- vah.
