NRL Star Valentine Holmes to Represent Cook Islands
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 switch Test allegiance, following in the footsteps of players like Payne Haas and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, who opted to represent Samoa.
The Cook Islands' qualification for the World Cup is not guaranteed, as they face South Africa in a qualifier next month after the Pacific Championships.
However, Holmes' involvement would be a significant boost for the team, should they qualify for the tournament, which will be held in Australia next year.
Valentine Holmes' commitment to the Cook Islands would be a huge coup for the team.
