Warriors and Tonga front-rower Addin Fonua Blake wants more NRL talent to switch test allegiances to their Pacific island of heritage

17 April 2024 - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is yet to confirm whether he'll continue representing the Kiwis or play for Toa Samoa if selected for the international window.
