Foe debuted for the Wellington Lions during the 2014 ITM Cup, however that was to be his sole appearance during the competition that year. 2015 was to prove to be a more successful campaign for him on a personal level, making 10 appearances, 5 of which were from the start and then by 2016, he had established himself as a regular in the Wellington side which reached the Championship semi-finals before going down to North Harbour.[3]

International

Born in Samoa, but raised in New Zealand, Foe has represented the land of his birth at numerous levels including; under 20, sevens and Samoa A.

He first made the Samoa senior national team in 2016, debuting in the number 7 jersey in a 26–16 defeat against Fiji in Suva. He went on to earn a second cap a week later in a victory over Tonga and later in the year was named in the Samoa squad for the 2016 end-of-year rugby union internationals.[3][4]
