[edit]

He was part of their inaugural side on 1 March against the North Queensland Cowboys and remained with the squad during the 1998 season.[1] Tamani became a favourite of the Adelaide crowd and scored six tries in his 21 games for the ill-fated club which was shut down only weeks before the 1999 NRL season.
