From , 6:00 am on 20 March 2021

The Papua New Guinea Hunters will kick off their 2021 season this weekend in Australia, having relocated their entire squad to Queensland.

A Fijian outfit Kaiviti Silktails, who have also moved down under, were supposed to also start their season this weekend but games have been rained out in Sydney.

RNZ Pacific sports producer and reporter, Vinnnie Wylie, has been following the Hunters and Silktails journeys and joins me now.

So what competitions are these Pacific league teams playing in Vinnie?

The PNG Hunters began pre-season training in December.
