SITALEKI Akauola's game may be all about hard running and power, but he is clearly a gentle giant off the field.
It certainly shows in his classy message of apology to Leeds Rhinos forward James Harrison following a tackle in last week's match at The Halliwell Jones Stadium.
Akauola was sin-binned for a dangerous tackle on Rhinos youngster Harrison during The Wire's 32-6 victory and has now been hit with a three-match ban.
He posted this message on Twitter last night
3weeks 😒🤦🏽♂️! apologies to James Harrison for the tackle! just know I had no intention in putting you in that position or at any point tried to hurt you mate. All love No hate Brother ❤🙏🏽
