Which players from Samoa and Tonga would you select and which Kiwi players would you swap out? Aside from Taumalolo of course who is obvious.

Also, proper eligible players only e.g. anyone playing Origin is ineligible. Arguably a guy like Spencer Leniu wouldn't be eligible either as he was only born in NZ and is basically an Aussie.

Oh and the ABs don't get the best Island players - we have Shannon Frizzell FFS. I think I'd rather have his brother.

Junior poulo.. comes to mind but I haven't had a proper look

Honestly you are wasting you time.

Things like Warriors running their own SG Ball and NSW Cup team apparently won't do anything.

Nor will the success of the island teams in the World Cup
I don’t mind
It wouldn't be that hard for NZ union players to move to Australia and play in the NRL - so why aren't they doing so in large numbers?
loads are

have a look at kiwi nrl players and how many comes from nz and came here to play

Apparently not if you read above. The moderator said so and we have no idea what we are talking about!

You really don't have any idea what you are talking about.

I have him on ignore.

Offers nothing to the convo

No You don't, You can't put moderators on ignore. You choose to ignore, but you are forced to read what I post.

Apparently he’s not negative just a realist and everybody else should just shut up. Never seen anything like it especially from a moderator on any forum.

Well then you don't have to hang around. You can either ignore it, complain, or step back from the internet if that offends you so much.

Sorry I’m here to stay. Watching your 40 meltdowns a day is too precious to give up!

Looks like the kiwi junior pathways are pretty good at finding these stars

it’s a shame it’s Aussie clubs developing them than the warriors but the pathways are finding some great talent

Of course they can find talent. But half a dozen players a year is not a "pathway" More money needs to be spent to establish real pathways.

There a few new ones signed for next season too, Panthers have someone who was chased by both codes.
Nice

Doing the lords work

plus playing for the strongest rugby team on the planet is good for their development

Penrith playing a big part in the strength of samoa and nz test teams

Number 1 on this table. So was rated highly in Year 11, These are where the NRL clubs come in as opposed to really getting into the grass roots
