Each New Zealand Super Rugby club's top 10 players of all time: No ... (Stuff.co.nz)

OPINION: Who is the greatest player of all time at each NZ Super Rugby club? Over the next 10 weeks we countdown from 10 to 1.

A powerful ball carrier, Manu went on to make 10 appearances for Tonga and he left a strong legacy at the Highlanders, where he has returned in an operations and player mentoring role. Nasi Manu made the shift south from the Crusaders and became a part of Highlanders history when he co-captained the side (with Ben Smith) to the 2015 title. Nicknamed "Rangi" after the popular Footrot Flats cartoon character, the silky-skilled fullback was an instrumental cog in the Crusaders for more than a decade. So much so that his arrival for 2012 from the Crusaders coincided with the Chiefs winning their maiden title. The power-packed wing for three seasons formed the most lethal strikeforce, not just in the competition, but quite possibly the world alongside the great Jonah Lomu as the Blues won back-to-back titles in the first two years of Super Rugby and were beaten finalists the third. Well, we asked the Stuff journalists who cover each of the five New Zealand clubs to pick their top 10 players.

Rotorua nurse Tracey Morgan joins thousands moving to Australia (New Zealand Herald)

It shows the extent of those crossing - or planning to cross - the ditch, often to take up lucrative short-term contracts of up to NZ$8500 a week. There is a ...

Te Whatu Ora’s Margie Apa said the board had yet to put its recommendations to Cabinet, but funding for staff was top of mind. Nuku said there was an additional worry that the health system was losing many Māori nurses to the short Australian contracts, and they were already under-represented. “They’re going over, they’re getting better recognition, better pay, short term, and they can bring in additional money to the household budget.” “We need every nurse that we can find in New Zealand as well as as many from overseas that we can attract to come and work here, so that is a real concern.” “I didn’t want to be one of those numbers, but they’re not investing enough in the nurses that are here to keep us.” It shows the extent of those crossing — or planning to cross — the ditch, often to take up lucrative short-term contracts of up to NZ$8500 a week.
