Ma'a Allan Nonu, born 21 May 1982 of Samoan descent is a professional rugby union player from New Zealand who currently plays for San Diego Legion in Major League Rugby (MLR). He plays most of his rugby at inside centre, but can also cover outside centre and wing.

He was a key member of 2011 and 2015 Rugby World Cup winning teams, becoming one of only 20 players who have won the Rugby World Cup on multiple occasions. He is regarded as one of the best centres to ever play the game of rugby union.

Nonu is well known for his explosiveness and powerful attacking runs and regularly breaks the defensive line at will, however is also known for his dangerous shoulder charge tackles, which have often seen him sent off during games. 2011 World Cup-winning All Blacks coach Graham Henry has described him as "probably the best linebreaker in this game in this country."

Nonu has been noted to possess a similar attacking skillset to former All Black centre Tana Umaga. Like Umaga, he is an exceptional crash ball runner who excels at breaking the line and creating space for outside backs. In 2005, Henry described Nonu as "young Tana," underlining the impression that he was being groomed as a potential successor to Umaga. This comparison has been confirmed in recent times by Wayne Smith.

Nonu went on to have an absolutely incredible rugby career both Domestically and Internationally spanning almost two full decades. After announcing his retirement from International rugby, The USA's Major League Rugby announced in October 2019 that Nonu would play for the San Diego Legion in the 2020 season. Unfortunately the season was cancelled early due to restriction.
