'I have never won anything. It was back in school the last time'

Sione Tuipulotu tackles Marcus Smith - PA

Sione Tuipulotu is inspired by the regular reminders of Glasgow Warriors’ 2015 Pro12 triumph as this season promises a thrilling finale.

Glasgow beat Munster 31-13 in the Grand Final in Belfast eight years ago and there are photos of that achievement around their Scotstoun ground, while the Scotland centre’s team-mates such as Duncan Weir, Ryan Wilson and Fraser Brown, as well as assistant coach Peter Horne, played that day at the Kingspan Stadium.

Warriors beat Scarlets 35-17 in Llanelli on Saturday to reach the Challenge Cup final for the first time and they will face Toulon in Dublin on May 19.

Tuipulotu is “stoked to be in our first European final” but is focused on Saturday’s United Rugby Championship play-off tie against Munster.

The 26-year-old, who joined Glasgow from Eastern Suburbs in 2021, said: “I have never won anything. It was back in school the last time I won anything.

“It is quite special for me to be at a club which has recently won.

“You walk past guys in the changing room like Ryan Wilson who has won this tournament before.

“There is a sense of belief. We have guys in this team who have won this before and I didn’t have that at other clubs so we are rubbing shoulders with guys who have won it and we want to create our own history.

“Inside Scotstoun there are pictures everywhere of that Championship-winning team.

“I just want to be part of a winning team and there are a lot of boys who are really motivated to build towards that.

“I don’t want to get ahead of myself and think we are at the start of the final. We are in the last eight and earned ourselves a home game and it is about taking advantage of that.

“There is a long way to go before then and it starts this weekend with Munster.

“We haven’t won anything yet. The main focus is beating Munster on our home ground.”

Former England star leads Benetton to huge URC result over Lions

Life can unravel in an instant. For me, that moment came when deceitful cryptocurrency brokers vanished with £40,000 of my savings, a devastating blow that left me paralyzed by shame and despair. The aftermath was a fog of sleepless nights, self-doubt, and a crushing sense of betrayal. I questioned every choice, wondering how I’d fallen for such a scheme. Hope felt like a luxury I no longer deserved. Then, Tech Cyber Force Recovery emerged like a compass in a storm. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out, half-expecting another dead end. What I found, however, was a team that radiated both expertise and empathy. From our first conversation, they treated my crisis not as a case file, but as a human tragedy. Their professionalism was matched only by their compassion, a rare combination in the often impersonal world of finance.

What happened next defied logic. Within 72 hours of sharing my story, they traced the labyrinth of blockchain transactions, outmaneuvering the scammers with surgical precision. When their email arrived, “Funds recovered, secure and intact,” I wept. It wasn’t just the money; it was the validation that justice could prevail. Tech Cyber Force Recovery didn’t just restore my finances, they resurrected my dignity. But their impact ran deeper. They demystified the recovery process, educating me without judgment. Their transparency became a lifeline, transforming my fear into understanding. Where I saw chaos, they saw patterns; where I felt powerless, they instilled agency. Today, I’m rebuilding not just my savings, but my trust in humanity. Tech Cyber Force Recovery taught me that vulnerability isn’t weakness, and that seeking help is an act of courage. To those still trapped in the aftermath of fraud: miracles exist. They wear no capes, but they wield algorithms and integrity like superheroes. To the extraordinary Tech Cyber Force Recovery team, your work is more than technical prowess. It’s alchemy, turning despair into resilience. You gave me more than my funds; you gave me my future. May your light guide countless others through their darkest nights. From the depths of my heart: Thank you.
