      Biography


      Born to a Tongan father and Maori mother, Briggs grew up in the small community of Taharoa in Waikato.
      Briggs was a prop, capped for Tonga on their 1997 tour of Great Britain, captaining the side in a Test against Wales at St Helen's. Further international opportunities were knocked back due to his focus on professional rugby.
      A Waikato player, Briggs's form had him keeping Chiefs captain Michael Collins out of the provincial line-up in 1999 and the next year he got his first start in the Chiefs XV. He made a total of 31 Super 12 appearances for the Chiefs.
