Feeling pretty chuffed about this After playing in my Nelson College XIII last season three of the squad have been offered the chance to play in the NRL U20 comp. Two have deferred as they're only U17 atm and want to finish their high school education (and have the full support of the agents/clubs in doing so) - another lad is moving over in a few months. In an interseting development though the lad whos about to leave still has the option of playing RL or RU (he recently trained with both the Eels and the Warratahs this summer). I think his preference atm is to try RL - but it does seem as if agents are now scouting in NZ for both codes.

There are 12 NZ eligible players per NRL club.

Yep - bring on the 2nd NZ NRL side. It's the least we deserve here.
