Briton Nikora could sneak into Cronulla Sharks' NRL team next season and Steven Marsters did the Junior Kiwis/Aotearoa Under 18 double this year. Don't buzz about RLWC, keep your eyes forward and enjoy the #KiwiNRL future.
Times are changing for how Aotearoa Warriors structure their junior farm. So instead of reviewing how they are going about their junior recruitment, let's set the scene before getting more information over the summer.
Melbourne Storm will have Sam Kasiano and Nelson Asofa-Solomona in the same forward pack next season. dfjgjarkjabvkjbslgjrwhLGAdagfsJDSAjnvkan mind blown.
Ata Hingano's future at Aotearoa Warriors seems a wee bit murky with the arrival of Blake Green.
Jason Taumalolo is only earning $1million a season for being the beastliest forward in the NRL. He's almost certainly not going to keep up his bonkers production for nine more years though.
The Roosters love their #KiwiNRL forwards and Zach Dockar-Clay has been signed by Townsville Blackhawks.
Canberra Raiders needed a dummy half, so they hit up the toko Siliva Havili and now Havili has a chance to suss out some NRL game time.
Aotearoa Warriors have signed a Peta Hiku and Gerard Beale, yet David Fusitu'a is still the best winger at the club.
Gold Coast Titans aren't exactly a fantastic NRL club and they don't have too much #KiwiNRL talent, co-inki-dink (coincidence for you plebs)?
Mitchell Pearce will join a boomin' #KiwiNRL crew at Newcastle Knights, with two lethal #KiwiNRL runners in Kalyn Ponga and Danny Levi.
Brian Smith has a new gig at Aotearoa Warriors as GM of Football and those winds of change through Mt Smart are still blowing.
Cronulla Sharks needed some young big boppers, so they hit the #KiwiNRL big bopper production line and picked up Braden Uele, Ava Semuanufagai and Cruz Topai-Aveai.
Jeremey Marshall-King is off to ride in his own lane at the Bulldogs and Brad Abbey's gapped the Doggies to be a Raider as the #KiwiNRL transfers get funky.
Aotearoa Warriors have signed Blake Green and the winds of change continue to blow an almighty breeze through Mt Smart.
David Kidwell and his old boys club of selectors got exactly what they deserved, which was exactly not what Aotearoa Kiwis deserved. Hold your heads high kiwi league fans, we deserve better.
It doesn't matter what Shaun Johnson actually is as a rugby league half. All that matters is that he gains some clarity and RLWC knockout footy without his Kiwis buddy Kieran Foran is the fascniating juncture where we'll all suss out SJ7.
There's nothing 'global' about 2017 Rugby League World Cup quarter-finals. Plenty of international growth to come folks, if rugby league wants it.
Aotearoa lost to Tonga and a few changes have been made for the Kiwis to face Fiji. All good jah, keep it moving and on to a fresh challenge (quarter-final time baby).
Aotearoa Warriors have officially re-signed Albert Vete and this means that there is slightly nek-level depth in the Warriors middle forwards. Chuck all that depth into a pot and call it a boil up.
How can Aotearoa get the W against Tonga this weekend? Stopping Taumalolo, Taukeiaho and Fifita will be crucial, they'll have to hit Tonga's weakest edge as well.
