@Duluth Looks like Emersen Tamura-Paki played for Panasonic Wild Knights in Japan when he was 19, and has been in Auckland B and Blues Dev squads. He'll be 22 in August. plays loosehead, may have Japanese heritage. Expressed desire to play for Japan last year.
All I can find on Dexter Fa'amoana is that he's 23, was in Auckland B last year, and went through the International Rugby Academy of New Zealand's High Performance Players Course this year. Plays tighthead.
EDIT: In 2016, College Rifles had Tamura-Paki at 184 cm/113 kg, and Fa'amoana at 190 cm/128 kg.
