I can see why, they want to make the PI teams more competitive.
But it's also shithouse, fly your flag to one mast you fluffybunnies and stop waiting for a better offer.
It's short term versus long term. You might make Tonga better in the short term by giving them Vatuvei but I wonder if it helps in the long term. It harms the credibility of the sport and allows good players to leave the weaker teams if they get a better offer.

@hydro11 It's about making sure there are plenty of NRL and Superleague players in this year's RLWC, and not teams filled with players from the lower divisions (NSW Cup etc). I suspect they'll revisit the issue in 2018.

@akan004 Not really as it was an Australian club that took him so we had to know that the Aussies would shift the goalposts. And to be fair, an Auckland high school poached him from Fiji first so in some ways it's a lesson.
-
@Sneakdefreak That's what I meant. We poached him from Fiji and it backfired on us.
-
and the storm swapped him to the blues for Duffie
Vunivalu is the better player

Jesse Bromwich snorts the pressure and stands down as Kiwis captain.
Rumours that Cowboys coach Paul Green would be keen on a role for the RLWC. Rumours now that Paul Green could replace David Kidwell as Kiwis coach.More to follow.

ironic given what Kidwell did while he was playing, almost identical situation wasnt it? (just without the Coke and gay night club)

'Proctor and Bromwich allegedly met local 45-year-old Adrian Crowther at Petrie Plaza outside the popular Cube nightclub in the Australian capital city.
The Cube is described online as "Canberra's premier gay venue". The location's website describes decor "featuring beds" and an "'anything goes attitude and a certain open-mindedness that smacks you in the face often before you've even walked in the door."

Oh lordy....

HAHAHAHAHAHA breath HAHAHAHAHAHA
The CEO of the Titans is disappointed that the players aren't better supervised when on rep duty. I'm not sure which is funnier, the fact that he is trying to shift blame for grown men, or the fact the Titans are trying to look down on someone else for off field behavior

You have to love the whole "reputation in tatters" bs. Yes before this league players were typified by their impeccable behaviour and squeaky clean records.
This will be quickly be forgotten until the next player is caught shooting up on heroin while drinking his own urine and having his cock licked by a dog.

@mariner4life To be fair, the Titans may have been a previous haven for coke heads, but I'm not aware that any of them pissed in their own mouths.
-
@mariner4life he only wants to make sure his players use genuine GC powder bro! None of that shitty Canberra snow ha ha - it's about branding!
This is really shit. League (at any level) just can't shake drugs, violence and general dumbassary. Kidwell must be fuming, although it does take a bit of heat off us getting pantsed.

Even Cronulla can't stay away from the nose candy. Clean, innocent lil' Cronulla....
Cronulla Sharks chairman Damian Keogh stands down over alleged cocaine possession
Cronulla chairman Damian Keogh has been forced to stand down from his role at the Sharks after being charged with cocaine possession.

Think it's beenmentined before, how coke is the choice of drugs due to the fact it leaves the system so quickly. Play on the weekend, have a bender and snort the shit then pass the drugs test on Tuesday.
