Raiders' success linked to having Kiwi players; recruitment focuses on finding hidden gems from New Zealand.
Across their four decades as a premiership club, success for the Raiders has tended to coincide with them having a healthy collection of players with New Zealand passports on their roster.
The club based much of their recruitment strategies of the 1980s and 1990s around finding hidden gems across the Tasman and to this day their squad is littered with Kiwi talent.
