Nz teambut that's the same for any new club coming in. Arguably another Australian club is going to generate better Australian Tv $'s and more interest to corporates than a NZ club so there has to be some pay off for bringing in another NZ club. Be it in Tv value or some other monetary value.
Id say maybe at International level more Kiwis equals stronger NZ team but after last pacific championship that's not maybe needed lol
