Jazz Tevaga to donate $100 for every error, to help former teammate's battle with cancer
Jazz Tevaga has declared he will donate $100 for every error made in the 2023 season, to help former teammate Roman Tuhimata’s cancer treatment. This includes every missed tackle, error and penalty.
“Roman endured months of pain and discomfort while working, eventually forcing him to wear his tool belt around his neck,” Tevaga wrote.
“Multiple trips to A & E and to the hospital resulted in being discharged prematurely, after conducting many different tests.
“Once the seriousness of the situation was realised, a PET scan showed the tumour that began in his abdomen, had now spread to his liver and spleen resulting in a stage 4 cancer diagnosis.
“With his typical calm and humble nature, he [Tuhimata] maintains a strong positive attitude, that is inspiring,” Tevaga wrote.
“He is a genuine kind loving man - all the qualities that make for an amazing partner, son, brother and friend.”
