Multicultural round in the NRL gives the competition a chance to pause and realise the number of nations represented in this great sport.
Now more than ever, players with backgrounds from all around the world have become part of the NRL and make up the phenomenal sport we know and love.
The Pacific Islands are often first to be thought of when the international growth of the game is considered, with players representing those nations left, right and centre despite the lure of playing for either Australia or New Zealand.
Zero Tackle have, after plenty of internal debate, pieced together a list of the top ten multi-national players in the history of the game - that is, a player who has played Test match rugby league for more than one country.
There were plenty to pick from, and some very strong options who missed the list, including the likes of David Fifita and Tino Fa'asuamaleaui out of the current crop, and the likes of Brent Kite, Sika Manu, Michael Jennings, Roy Asotasi and Nigel Vagana alongside a host of others.
Here are our top ten.
4. Petero Civoniceva (Australia/Fiji)
A champion for the game in the Pacific Islands, Civoniceva's post-playing career has seen him jump into numerous roles within Fijian rugby league.
Born in Suva, he was one of the great front-rowers of the early 2000s, representing Australia 45 times between 2001 and 2011, and playing 33 State of Origins in roughly the same time frame.
He played 235 matches for the Brisbane Broncos, and another 74 for the Penrith Panthers, but it was his six Tests for Fiji following his NRL retirement at the end of 2012 which stood out.
Still playing for the Redcliffe Dolphins in the QLD Cup, he put his best foot forward for Fiji, and will undoubtedly continue to work for the good of the game in the island nation moving forward.
