PRE RICHMOND
The former Melbourne Storm development squad NRL player only moved to Melbourne in 2012, learning the game at school before announcing himself as a serious Australian Rules talent with a 25-goal display in the U/19s for St Kilda City in 2016.
Lefau signed for Casey's VFL team in 2017 and featured in their Grand Final side the following season. He also represented New Zealand against the AIS on two occasions both at Marvel Stadium and in Wellington.
The COVID-19 pandemic saw Lefau halt his state league career, returning to St Kilda City before the Tigers' VFL Program came calling towards the end of 2021.
