The club have in the past sometimes not been great with their communications re attracting NZ players to the clubs.
I remember when Tim Payne was in NZ at Eastern Suburbs, the Nix sent him an email invitation to trial. Not even a phone call. Which he found almost insulting. Some story like that.
Though I think it was one of those messy periods at the Nix when there was no head coach, either post Kalezic before Rudan appointed, or post Rudes before Talay appointed. Talay signed Payne.
