Funa, who grew up in Fairfield and attended Westfield Sports High, made his debut in round 5 of the 2020 NRL season for Manly-Warringah against the Brisbane Broncos. He scored a try as Manly won 20–18.

The talented outside back was Manly’s Rookie of the Year in 2020, scoring five tries in 12 NRL games in his debut season, and was also one of the standouts in their Premiership winning U20’s side in 2017.

In October 2021, he made a code switch to Rugby Union, signing a one-year deal with the Waratahs which will see him remain at Daceyville until at least the end of the 2022 Super Rugby season.
