Frank Paul Nuuausala announces retirement

[Cockadoodledoo]

Didn't FPN have some kind of weird medical condition that affected his health?

I believe he is asthmatic.

[The Axe]

Another player with great expectation. Loved for club for helping turn his life around from Auckland gang mentality.

wish he could of been the consistent player we all wished for. But he may have been damaged - it is a brutal sport.

thought he exceeded everyone’s expectations to play a few nrl games this year.

glad he decided to retire. All the best Frank. You have a premiership ring to accompany you into old age

Worst on ground in the 2013 GF. And probably the 2014 Prelim too.

Idk how I feel about Franky. Always spoke passionately about the club but you never felt that with his performances as he was crazily inconsistent.

But I wish him well.

He only played 5 minutes in the GF.

[ROC181]

That’s a shame. I thought he would give his ballwreaking one last time for us but I guess age has wearyd him.

My most memorable FPN moment was his diving on the loose ball from the scrum against the Tigpies feed.

[Hawkeye]

He only played 5 minutes in the GF.

that's 5 minutes more than many many others. Good luck to him. He loves the Roosters so for that alone he gets my utmost respect !

Some years ago I saw some of the Roosters players at the Coogee Bay Hotel.
FPN and SKD where amoungst them and a lot younger.
The next day I took my son to the Roosters Fan day.
And while my son was getting there autographs, I in converstion with FPN and SKD mentioned I had seen them the previous night at the CBH.
The look on there face was a combo of embarassment and horror.
I then realised that they shouldn't of been there.
So I quickly shut my mouth, but thought it quite funny after.

Good for a penalty or 5 per game

[zac]

Love how some no talent bums are getting stuck into him on the day he announces his retirement.

He did a lot of good things for us and every genuine Roosters fan would wish him all the best.

[roostersrule2]

Very good player on his day, could run as hard as anyone and had an offload. Did a lot of off the ball stuff like pressuring kickers that often went unnoticed.

He’ll always be a premiership winner and remembered for a key part of that semi final win over the Tigers.

Wish him well in retirement.

[mightyrooster]

Happy retirement FPN. You were a frustrating player at times, but your love for the Roosters has never been in doubt.

[PRIDE]

See ya Frankie, probably the second best forward I have ever seen when he hit his straps.

Still remember his steal in the 2010 final against the Tigers.

[Keith]

I have lots of great memories of cranky Frank standing up for the Roosters.
i hope he gets a run vs Parra.

[Salvatori Grubber]

When at his best, a match winner. All the best Cranky Franky!
