Gagai eyes second World Cup title, with his second team

Key points

  • Dane Gagai has vowed to do everything he can to win a second rugby league World Cup title, this time with New Zealand. The 35-year-old, who won the 2017 World Cup with Australia, has switched his eligibility through his mother.
  • Eligibility rules were overhauled in February, allowing State of Origin players to represent any nation. Gagai said the move came together quickly after a phone call from assistant coach Adam Blair.
  • The World Cup follows Newcastle's loss in the NRL grand final.
