Apoua Samuel Stewart (born 2 December 1979) is a Samoan former rugby union international.[1]
A native of Wellington, Stewart was a Marist St Pats product who played mainly as a fullback and winger. He made his provincial debut for Wellington in 2001, then played with Bay of Plenty from 2003 to 2005.[2]
Stewart was capped twice by Samoa in 2005, debuting as the team's fullback in the one-off Test against Australia at Stadium Australia in Sydney. His other appearance came in Nuku'alofa against Tonga.[3]
In 2006, Stewart joined English club Coventry and had his time at the club cut short when he tested positive for ephedrine, receiving a two-year ban by the International Rugby Board, later reduced to 18-months. He has claimed that the positive test was the result of a training supplement he had taken.[4] [5]
Stewart made a return to provincial rugby in 2009, playing again for Wellington.[2]
