Former All Black Sione Lauaki, 35, has died, apparently suffering from kidney failure.

Lauaki, who played 17 tests, was an enormously destructive forward, whose career never quite reached potential.

He emerged out of Kelston Boys High and played for New Zealand Colts, making his Auckland debut in 2002.
