While playing for the Souths Logan Magpies in the Queensland Cup,[3] QLT was selected to represent Samoa in two international matches in October 2010, against New Zealand[4] and Tonga, scoring a try against the latter.[5]

In 2012, QLT scored 35 tries for Sheffield, which was an all time season record for the club. Q was also named in the Championship team of the year at full back, and scored a try in Sheffield's 20–16 victory over Featherstone Rovers in the Championship Grand Final. The following year, he scored another 35 tries for Sheffield, and was again named in the team of the season. He also scored a try in Sheffield's 19–12 win over Batley in the Championship Grand Final.

In November 2016, QLT signed with the Toronto Wolfpack for their inaugural season in League 1.[6]

On 1 January 2024, it was reported that he had suffered a heart attack whilst training.[7][8]
