      Good on Wayne, getting in a little retirement cash and enjoying a little OE and some great Japanese food and beer.

            Who on earth is Tyrone what’s his name?

            Is this thread for players of at least super rugby quality heading overseas or just anyone with a nz passport who at some stage in their life picked up a rugby ball??

                A first-five eighth wit a good boot, that's about it. Most recently played for Auckland in the Mitre 10 Cup, and before that for Hawke's Bay.

                Why would this thread only be for SR players? Info about Mitre 10 Cup players is relevant to some of us as well.

                    @billy-tell isn't this thread about players that are leaving NZ to take up contracts overseas? I'd prefer to see them all listed rather than have someone worry if Billy tell will know the player.

                                    @bovidae Big difference in pay! If NZR didn't allow players with shown loyalty to NZ to earn some good coin in Japan in the SR off-season and then return, they would just pack their bags and leave NZ permanently. At least this option keeps these players available for SR and keeps New Zealand's SR teams of a good standard.

                                      @bovidae it's not a new thing though is it, I think as long as it is restricted to long serving players and maybe only a couple per franchise, it should be ok.

                                        This has been known for quite some time. It is nothing comp as far as NZRU see it. Not enough money to support SR and NPC so NPC will keep on withering up
