I have got to give ozzy alot of credit signing steve kearney was a great move as he coaches the kiwis in think this will benefit parra in the long run i think that parra would have a very good chance at picking up a few kiwi representives we have already been linked to
Isssac Luke
Sonny Bill Williams ( Highly Unlikely)
and depending on what happens with souths and greg inglis roy asotasi could be released and he could very well end up in a blue and gold jesey. parra has a strong kiwi connection in their side as it is now FUI, TAHU ??, HORO, MAITUA, SIO and of course kearney as the coach.

Isaac Luke has already re-signed with the Bunnies for 4 years, and is happy there, so that effectively rules him out.
SBW won't come either.
He's aiming to be selected at next year's RWC, and is solely focused on that.
normally i just never comment on blogs like this, but this one has blown me up.
WE ARENT GONNA SIGN ANYONE OF THESE PLAYERS!
orford is the only "semi - high profile" player that we have a chance at, and it seems likely he'll be at canberra next year.
Luke and SBW are NOT going anywhere !!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOTH solidly signed to their respective teams in RL and RU.
Greg Inglis is in BRISBANE training with the Broncos awaiting the resolution of the standoff with the Storm so he can "officially" sign with them.
The linking of KIWI players to Parra have ALL been media BS so far.
What makes you think the media BS will convince them to join us?
SK could NOT be so stupid as to load the Eels with all these so called top players as he would crucify the team and club during tests and other NZ engagements.
And although we "reportedly" have something like $700K left we would soon find ourselves breaching the cap.
Next rumour please.
Where I live we had heard NOTHING about Inglis until we got the Brisbane Sunday Mail.
Guess I jumped the gun. Sorry.
