Does anyone know of a site/source that keeps track of NZ players and where they’re playing?
I’ve just compiled the birthplaces/parentage of all players in PRO14 clubs and am going to make a start on the Premiership next.

Not a site, but the NZ Rugby Almanack (book) always has lists of NZers playing overseas.

Cheers - thanks for that.

It's now official. George Moala has signed a three-year contract with Clermont.
The media release doesn't state when exactly he'll join the club next year, so I assume he'll start immediately after the Super Rugby season. Usually when a player arrives later in the season (because of playing Mitre 10 Cup), they mention that explicitly in the media release.

Yes - I’ll admit it.

@stargazer He's been a great servant to Auckland and Blues rugby and deserves to get a big payday. He was virtually playing on his own during the Blues 2015 season where no-one else seemed interested and was also a star in the 2015 Mitre 10 Cup where he and a few others almost carried us to the title this year. Thanks for the memories George.

I dunno anymore. Do we get upset about a Fijian ditching the Abs and essentially committing himself to a hard push in 7s if he wants to play international rugby again?

The number of Kiwis playing (or coaching) in Italy is interesting.
Benetton Treviso is coached by Kiwi Kieran Crowley since 2016.
Former Auckland, Northland and Blues player Dean Budd has been playing there since 2012 and has played for Italy at least 6 times.
Jayden Hayward joined the team in 2014 and now also has 3 caps for Italy.
Nasi Manu, Whetu Douglas, Marty Banks, Hame Faiva and Monty Ioane all arrived at the club in 2017.James Tucker joined Zebre in 2017.

I was tearing up a bit but then I remembered his tackling attempt on Jonothan Davies.
Good riddance.

With Genia moving to Melbourne from the Reds, and Ruru being one of many Force players being signed, it's going to be a battle for game time at halfback. Unless he hopes to stay in Europe, this is not a smart move from Stirzaker if he wants to claim the 9 (or 21) jersey in Melbourne and has any ambitions to become a Wallaby. Maybe he's now thinking of an England or even Springbok jersey instead (he was born in England to South African parents) ?

@stargazer Stirzacker is lucky to get a Super Rugby spot at all - his form has gone backwards in a big way - had a very poor 2017.
-
@kiwimurph Hmm, the whole Rebels squad had a very poor 2017.
@stargazer I know - Im a season ticker holder. Stirzacker was trash.

I wouldn't be happy about this if I were a Scottish fan or a NZ fan.
Unlike.
