He is fast become one of New Zealand sport's most famous Tweeters and now Hurricanes prop Neemia Tialata is about to up the ante.

All Blacks and Canes star Tialata is gaining quite a following on the social networking site, with 2-thousand followed already following his Tweets.

Like many high profile sports stars before him, Tialata has already used Twitter to criticise his All Blacks coaches for resting him, and last week he voiced his frustration over the dropping of Hurricanes teammate Jason Eaton.

But now Tialata now wants to up ante, by tweeting during a match.

He told reporters on Friday about his new project, and said while he might get in trouble for it, it is not like he is planning to kill anyone.

So, tweeters stay tuned when the Canes take on the Lions on Saturday night.
