No there isnt, ill give you the benefit of the doubt you havent read my posts on this matter but its a myth.

Firstly, its a small market. Theres only about 400k black fijians in Fiji (indians are the main group ogf others and dont play rugby) so the entire black population is equal to Ryde council.

Secondly, they play union mainly and unions all up in their guts recruitment wise.

Thirdly, the nrl does have presence there.

Fourthly, most end up in union after a few years. in fact so far....all outside backs have ended up in union.


Its way more yield going to england and in my opinion, France.
Its well documented Fiji is a Rugby centric nation, but that’s the point, there is talent there and I think their Rugby nursery has ample talent and at the minute, is ripe for the picking.
