I tossed up the idea that pacific islands 'A' or 'resident' teams playing in the QLD & NSW cups a few years ago..i also asked would would it be feasible for a cook island or samoan team to play in the NZ comp..

But it seems the NZ comp isn't what it should be, 7 teams and a 6 week comp is a disgrace,so maybe the QLD & NSW cups are the way to go?

We need to find a way for the old NZ Bartercard Cup format to exist long term

Ie the Auckland RL plus non Auckland provences

Also I would be adding Perth Adelaide Western Rams Northern Rivers Riverina and Northern Division to NSW Cup before Fiji
