Early years

Ma'u was an original member of Auckland's Roskill South-based "JDK", one of the many street gangs in New Zealand.[3] In 2007, after one of the gang was stabbed during an altercation, the gang gatecrashed a 21st birthday party in an alcohol-fuelled quest for vengeance, found the alleged perpetrators and "unleashed hell".[3] Two months later, Maʻu was arrested along with his brother, Semisi. He was convicted of grievous bodily harm with intent to injure and served 22 months in prison.[4]

Ma'u was released in 2009 to work and continue his rugby league career,[3] and joined the New Zealand Warriors' reserves team the Auckland Vulcans in the New South Wales Cup. But he found himself unable to play away games, as the Australian immigration department denied him a visa, citing his criminal history.[3]

In 2013, after his manager and the Parramatta Eels battled for a year to gain the necessary visa, Ma'u moved to Australia to play in the New South Wales Cup for the Wentworthville Magpies, the Eels' reserves team.

A reformed man with a young family of his own, Ma'u was eager to put his past behind him and make the most of his opportunity with the Eels. Ma'u said "I want to repay Parramatta for their faith," "I want to build a future. I want my partner Alisi and my kids [Melino and Levi] to be proud of me and I want my family to realise I'm not that naughty boy that caused them pain."[5]
