So...."American Samoan's" are American nationals thus eligible for the USA...

Heard that Joey Leilua might be eligible but skipped out last time coz he can't stand Brian Smith?

Ronaldo Mulitalo Cronulla only played the one so far but I believe he could be eligible

This Cook Islands game is gonna be interesting
Honestly, they are the exciting games and ones I look forward to. Even split games that could go either way.

(Although, I suppose the entire 9’s comp could be anyone’s game)

Everyone's gonna think Cookies will wipe the floor with USA but it only takes a couple of decent level players to even things out.

The US will need a fair few 'heritage' players and I use the term heritage loosely as many of them are only eligible because of their ties to American Samoa, which isnt even in the same hemisphere as the US . HOWEVER, It will be good if they can get some of them to play.
