Raymond Faitala-Mariner, Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs
Raymond Faitala-Mariner is a proud Samoan and New Zealand international who has a passion for serving others in his community.

Raymond’s interest in striving to give back to his community is focused on those less fortunate. Raymond coordinated a team of players, coaching staff and club office staff to create Hampers for Hope.

This initiative provided boxes of groceries, bread, fruit and vegetables to households across Sydney. Raymond also organised and led a team of Bulldog representatives to provide food for those in need on Christmas Day.

Raymond’s work in the community is shaped by his religious beliefs. As well as participating in club-based initiatives, Raymond represented the Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs at the Lakemba ANZAC Day Dawn Service, worked with St Mary’s Catholic Primary School to share messages of perseverance and attended St Rita Melkite Catholic Parish Annual Fundraising Dinner.

Raymond stands out amongst others due to the unique way he unites players and staff to become involved with his community service, together. The leadership and positive inclusivity Raymond brought to his community work shaped a shared vision, unity and collaborative approach within the Bulldogs.

What’s the ken Stephen’s medal for most weeks spent on the sideline?

the winner gets 3500 dollars to the club to spend on there junior league only and the winner also gets a medal at the grand final like connor watson did last year

 

[DaBulldog]

That’s an awesome effort. Also - why don’t the Media write about positive stories of Rugby League Players making a difference off the field? I know it doesn’t sell newspapers but, they need to let people know about inspiring efforts like this.

Probabaly had no choice but to attend all these events considering he was getting payed 400k a year to be injured.

That's because you're neglecting your Indian community.
