Kath Wharton: Tai Tokerau rugby league

From Māpuna, 12:50 pm on 16 July 2022

The best of Northland rugby league is on display this weekend, with a new competition hoping to get more kotiro and wahine playing the sport. In a region mad about the sport, it's the first wahine-specific competition in more than 20 years -- and they're going about things differently. It's a Maori-specific, whanau-specific approach they're taking and it's proving hugely popular. Kath Wharton, a former NRL, Maori All Star and Kiwi Fern international herself, joins us sideline from the tournament.
