The Warriors have produced 75 New Zealand internationals since 1995.

It’s an impressive tally, given the leading club in terms of producing Australian internationals, Sydney Roosters with 87, have been around since 1908. Fellow foundation club South Sydney are second on the list alongside Manly, which joined the premiership in 1947, with 71 players donning the green and gold.

Sydney Roosters (28), Canterbury (25), Melbourne (21) and Penrith (17) are the next-most frequent homes for Kiwis players.
