Other than his father is this a league relevant thread?

I'm guessing you were trying to be funny, but you've failed fairly miserably. Tony was a Kiwis international, who played for the Auckland Warriors (including the foundation team), Warrington and Wakefield.

Young Shem has shown a fair bit of talent and aptitude coming through the system - both he and Kurt Heatherly look set to give it as fair a crack as possible.

Other's who've been offered the opportunity in the past and chose to stick with the codes of their youth include Nick Evans (RU) and Matt Duffie (RL). Shem and Kurt look set though to follow this (AFL opportunity) through.

If it falls over for Shem, who knows, he may find his way back to RL or RU one day anyway - for Kurt though, I think he was more likely to head the way of the NZ basketball team.
