History Edit

In 1977, Dane Sorensen became the first New Zealander to be selected for the New Zealand national rugby league team while based overseas (Australia).[1] Before this date all New Zealand national sides were made up entirely of residents. In 1993, New Zealand fielded its first ever national team made up entirely of overseas based players.[1] Since 1993, with the exception of a few players from the Auckland/New Zealand Warriors team competing in the Australian National Rugby League, the New Zealand national team is predominantly filled with expat Kiwis.[1]

In 1994, then Kiwi coach Frank Endacott led a New Zealand Residents side on a tour of Australia.

In 1996 New Zealand XIII participated in the Pacific Challenge and, as the Lion Red Cup XIII, drew in a match against the touring Great Britain side and defeated the touring Papua New Guinea side.[2][3][4]

New Zealand XIII competed in the 1997 Oceania Cup, defeating New Zealand Māori in the final. In 1998 a Residents XIII lost two matches to the Auckland Warriors.[5]

New Zealand 'A', coached by Gary Kemble, toured the United States and France in 2002 and, led by Ged Stokes, Great Britain in 2003.[6][7] These two touring sides featured many players who would go on to have professional careers, including George Carmont, David Fa'alogo, Fuifui Moimoi, Tevita Latu, Phillip Leuluai and Hutch Maiava.[8][9]

Since then team has reverted to being known as the New Zealand Residents, with a New Zealand 'A' taking the field in 2006 made up of overseas based professional players.[10]

In 2006 the New Zealand Residents, coached by David Lomax, competed in a Trans Tasman Quadrangular Series against the Queensland Residents, New South Wales Country and a Jim Beam Cup selection.[11] The Residents won this series.[12] The Residents then played the New Zealand national rugby league team in a warm up match for the 2006 Tri-Nations. The senior side won 34-4.

The Residents have also competed in the World Sevens.
