Henry Fa'afili (born 30 May 1980 in Apia, Samoa) is a Samoan rugby footballer. He originally played rugby league but switched codes in 2007 to play rugby union. Fa'afili's position of choice is on the wing or in the centres. Fa'afili has been capped in rugby league for New Zealand and Samoa.
Fa'afili was educated at both Manurewa High School and De La Salle College, Mangere East. He represented both the New Zealand Secondary Schools team and the Junior Kiwis in 1998.
He has previously played for the Auckland Warriors in the National Rugby League competition. He made his debut in 2000.
Fa'afili signed for Warrington Wolves in 2004 and whilst at Warrington he scored many tries from high cross field kicks from Lee Briers. He scored 72 tries in 92 appearances for the Wolves (as at August 2007).
He was the top try-scorer in Super League for the 2007's Super League XII. He left the Wolves at the end of 2007 season because of salary cap restraints. Fa'afili played his last game for the Warrington Wolves on 14 September 2007 against Salford City Reds. The Wolves won 34–26.
Fa'afili agreed what was initially seen as a short-term deal with French rugby union side Biarritz. He was initially meant to play there short term but ended up staying longer.
