Not quite, because it's mostly for PI qualified players

I've always been in favour of a real 6th SR side based in the NI. Moana Pasfika isn't that

Mostly PI qualified NZers, plus a few extra plain old NZers not PI and other PI qualified Ozzies. It is mostly a kiwi team, and (like Samoa and Tonga national teams) it will stay that way.

Being a Going he'll fit right in Utah.

Aha. Charlie Ngatai.

Got a couple of positive mentions on here and a few posters, probably Cantabs, got upset he was beimg bigged up too much.

Shame he went OS. Could have been useful.

Sad because he adds to our depth, but pleased he can cash in.

BTW weren't you banned @jauzy19 for being the bearer of bad tidings?

@booboo it's funny how now it's just become the norm and part of the rugby landscape, where a decade or so ago there was communal horror when you saw jauzy had posted.

Hopefully he can find his way to Lyon better than he can find his lineout targets.

IIRC, this is Michael Little's 6th season in Japan. Anyone know when he will be eligible for their team?

Mr Fish

@tim Could be wrong, but I think the count might have reset during Covid because he left the country for too long a period or something absurd.
