Isn't Hoffman a Kiwi? How did he get selected ???

[Hail Sezer]

Because hes still indigenous. That side is picked irrespective of national alignment - if you are ethnically adequate then you are available for selection

[Mexican titan]

Like Titan P said, as long as they come through unscathed is the main thing. It is an honour getting picked and the match has a great purpose but I am wondering if there is as much interest these days as I notice the two for one ticket offer is on and I have always got freebies.

Cool. Thanks for that. I was totally confused. :-)

[Titanic]

Far too many from one club, especially one that was ranked 14th plus there are only 3 Broncos who are just up the road ... they're kidding. Maybe they think by selecting local players they'll get a better crowd .... hahahahaha.

is that 100%? i thought he had some indigenous australian in his blood line, and i dont see many other kiwis in the team.

in fact, most kiwi and players from pacific islands always seem to play for the NRL all stars team, Manu Vatevai and antonio winterstein this year, and guys like Benji Marshall in the past all played for NRL all stars

not arguing too hard, and i am very possibly way off, but i thought id ask.

EDIT: his mother, Grace, is of Torres Straight Island origin, so i think that makes him eligble. still not sure though

[Hail Sezer]

Yeah mate its his mothers side that makes him eligible, he talks about it in his most recent interview on the titans website

Oh wait I think I post was misinterpreted. By indigenous I meant aborigine/torres strait indigenous; not just indigenous to your respective homeland

Sorry for not being clear haha
