NRL Star Valentine Holmes to Switch Test Allegiance
Queensland and St George Illawarra Dragons outside back Valentine Holmes is set to represent the Cook Islands at next year's World Cup.
Holmes is the latest NRL star to commit to a Pacific nation on the Test stage, following in the footsteps of players like Payne Haas and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, who opted to represent Samoa in this year's Pacific Championship.
The Cook Islands' qualification for the World Cup is not guaranteed, with a qualifier against South Africa scheduled for next month, but Holmes' involvement would be a significant boost for the team.
