    Lots of Fijians.

    It's quite the academy Taranaki have going on.

    Do any other NPC unions have anything like that? Apart from the Canterbury & Crusaders link up with Lincoln University?

    FYI: As far as I know, the HBRU contracted players are: Danny Toala, Devan Flanders, Folau Fakatava, Jacob Devery, Josiah Tavita-Metcalf, Kianu Kereru-Symes, Lincoln McClutchie and Tim Farrell. There may be more that I don't know of. Devery and Farrell have already played Mitre 10 Cup.

    @nepia

    I could be wrong but Vaa'i is originally from Tonga isn't he? A lot of the Wesley students come from the Islands (the Methodist connection).

    New Zealand Rugby (NZR) has confirmed Taupo has retained hosting rights for the annual Jock Hobbs Memorial National Under 19 Tournament for three years from 2019.
    
    Taupo has been the home of the tournament since 2014, with their current five-year hosting agreement to end after the 2018 tournament. 
    
    Tournament details
    
    The 2018 tournament will be played over three days; Sunday 9 September, Wednesday 12 September and Saturday 15 September with players taking part in development programmes on non-game days. 
    
    A total of 400 players from 16 teams will compete – one team from each of the Mitre 10 Cup Provincial Unions, one Auckland Development team and one Heartland Unions combined team. Regional seeding tournaments will kick off across the four regions on 18 August, with tournament rankings to be decided on Saturday 1 September after the last round of seeding matches. 
    
    At the conclusion of the seeding matches, the teams in each region will be ranked 1-4, with the top two ranked sides in each region going into the top eight of the tournament draw to play for the Graham Mourie Cup, and the third and fourth ranked teams, into the championship eight to contest for the Michael Jones Trophy.
    
    Auckland A and Counties Manukau go into the tournament as defending champions of the Graham Mourie Cup and Michael Jones Trophy respectively.

    They should host this somewhere really difficult for the League scouts to get to to ....

    Like Niue, 1 flight in/out per week. Book out the whole plane.
