Geography wise New Caledonia is closest to NZ, Fiji and yes Vanuatu.
But they are French speaking, like Tahiti. So it might be with Tahiti United where a few NC players crop up??
Also alot of their national team are based in France. And lastly with that big March Intercontinental WC playoff tourney approaching, the national team maybe going into camp through some of February and March. Warmup games/camp in France??
They play Jamaica 26th of March in Guadalajara, Mexico.
In summary the NC players available for this OFC League, likely not their better talent, and then they maybe unavailable for a few weeks through Feb-March.
