Fotuaika looked set to make his senior debut after playing in several trial matches.

He was a member of the Tigers' 2012 premiership-winning under-20s team.

The Wests Tigers official Facebook site posted notice of the loss while players such as Tim Moltzen and Aaron Woods shared their condolences on Twitter.
 
Another young man gone way too soon. All parents on here can only imagine the suffering his family is going through. Terrible news.
