Frank Halai (born 6 March 1988) is a rugby union footballer who plays as a wing. He represents Wasps RFC in the English Premiership, having moved there before the 2015/2016 season from the Blues in Super Rugby.[1][2] He previously played for Counties Manukau[3] in the ITM Cup, and before that Waikato. Halai is a former All Black Sevens and All Black representative, having played one test match in 2013.[4]

Halai made his Super Rugby debut in Round 1 of the 2013 season when he started on the wing and played all 80 minutes of a 34-20 win over the Hurricanes in Wellington, scoring a try in the process. He ended the season as the Super Rugby leading try scorer with 10,[citation needed] and was third in line breaks with 21, behind his Blues team mates Rene Ranger and Charles Piutau who had 24 each.
