The heightened involve- ment of players of Pasifika origin has created many opportunities but has also presented challenges. This multifaceted, ethno-culturally diverse group of footballers of Pasifika heritage face a range of complex issues that marks them as distinctive in Australian sport. Indeed, researchers can glean much about the diverse and complex Pasifika diaspora in Australia by exploring their involvement in the rugby league. As this article shows, NRL players of Pasifika heritage typically experience complex patterns of migration and geographic mobility as well as profound cultural pressures and stereotyping (both within and outside their communities). Pasifika migrants additionally face problems associated with eligibility for interna- tional teams and the underlying politics of allegiance to a country beyond their birthplace. This article contributes to the limited literature on Pasifika people in an Australian sporting context by drawing on primary research on Australian rugby league and the experience therein of athletes of Pasifika descent (predominantly Samoan, Māori, and Tongan).

Rugby League as a Televised Product in the United States of America By Mike Morris Abstract Rugby league is a form of rugby that is more similar to American football than its more globally popular cousin rugby union. This similarity to the United States of America’s most popular sport, that country’s appetite for sport, and its previous acceptance of foreign sports products makes rugby league an attractive product for American media outlets to present and promote. Rugby league’s history as a working-class sport in England and Australia will appeal to American consumers hungry for grit and authenticity from their favorite athletes and teams.
