Mawene Hiroti Named In NZ U18s

Rabbitohs outside back Mawene Hiroti has been named in the New Zealand under 18s side to take on the Australian Schoolboys in the second Test match of the two-game tour this Saturday at 11:30am (NZ time) at Trust Arena in Auckland.

Ironically, Hiroti played for the Australian Schoolboys in 2016 alongside fellow Rabbitoh Campbell Graham, however this year he will line up against the Aussies and against Graham and another South Sydney team mate in Ky Rodwell.

In the first Test of the series, the Australians ran out 26-18 winners over the Kiwis.

Born in Taranaki, Hiroti has played 27 under 20s games for the Rabbitohs over the past two seasons, scoring nine tries and kicking one goal for 38 points.

Congratulations to Mawene on his selection for the New Zealand under 18s.
