Steve Luatua is a 31-year-old New Zealander who has played for Bristol Bears in the English Premiership. He made his debut for the national side in 2017 and has since played 81 games, scoring 45 points.

At 1.94m (6 ft 4in), he is renowned as one of the tallest players in rugby union and is also a strong lock player. Born and raised in Auckland, New Zealand, Steve quickly rose through the ranks of Mount Albert Grammar School's rugby team before making his provincial debut at just 18 years old in 2010.

After impressing with club sides Auckland Blues and North Harbour Blue Bulls, he signed with Bristol following their relegation from Super Rugby at the end of 2016 – where they had won promotion back to within two seasons earlier that year. 

His international career began when he was called up to replace an injured Brodie Retallick for game three of the 2017 British & Irish Lions series against Australia on 24 June 2017 – playing off the bench but notching up 21 minutes on duty as Fiji beat Australia 16–13 at Twickenham Stadium.

Luatua started all four tests during that tour while also appearing off both flanks alongside Samu Kerevi; however it wasn’t enough to stop New Zealand losing 3–0 overall which ended their 34-game home unbeaten streak dating back to 2007. 

In 2018/19, Steve started all 17 matches for Bristol helping them win promotion back into England's top flight after two seasons away - finishing as runner-up behind Saracens RFC.

Following Bristol's decision to fold at season's end due to lack of funding - meaning Steve will likely be without a club next season - speculation surrounds whether or not he'll join All Blacks head coach Craig Joubert once again ahead of their 2021 World Cup campaign.
