It was back in early May that the news broke of second Tuipulotu arriving in Scotland. Mosese was to join Edinburgh in the URC, and also join his older brother Sione by moving to the land of their grandmother's birth.

Scotland star Sione isn't done with his recruitment drive though. There's another brother - Ottavio - who plays for Australia's Under-20s side and the Waratahs.

"I really want my littlest brother to come over next," the Glasgow centre said, "so then we can just be three brothers in Scotland and lock up here for a bit.

"I believe in all my brothers. Genuinely, I think if my littlest brother came over here, he might end up being better than me and my brother. He's 20, he's a forward, a hooker.

"He had two knee reconstructions before he was 18. He had a really rough run with injuries but he's really dedicated to his rugby.

"I don't make any decisions for him but if it was up to me, he would do one year there and then come over. Try and get as much rugby under his belt in Sydney and then come over."

It's not just Sione trying to convince the littlest Tuipulotu to venture to the Northern Hemisphere.

"Sess [Mosese] had been selling him that. We had a group FaceTime the other day and Sess was like, †̃Bro, it's not what you think. I got to Edinburgh and it's like Harry Potter here, bro. I should have come ages agoâ€TM.

"Sess was trying to sell him the dream massively, but I can understand. when you're on Bondi beach, you feel like your life's pretty good. But I'm hoping to see him sooner rather than later."

Mosese's arrival over the summer was a surprise in some quarters, with the youngster tipped to pull on the gold of the Wallabies.

Now, he has been heralded as the answer to Edinburgh's problems in the centres, but after a promising start against Leinster he missed the trip to the Bulls with a hamstring problem.

"He's loving it," Sione confessed. "I said how much of a good experience that'll be for him to jump off the plane and join a new group and then your first game be against what everyone thinks is the benchmark.

"I told him his first game against Leinster is probably better than my first game against Leinster and told him to manage his expectations. I know he wants to hit the ground running and stuff like that, but it's a long season and I've got full belief in my brother that he will start to turn the screw very soon."
