Kiwis are prominent in a list of NRL players who can follow Jarryd Hayne's magical footsteps into America's NFL ranks.
And reports suggest Australasia's footballers could be under siege from the super rich American football franchises, after former Aussie NRL star Hayne's surprisingly strong start in his effort to crack the NFL ranks.
Whether the reaction to Hayne's pre-season debut for the San Francisco 49ers is overly excitable or close to the mark remains to be seen, but he has certainly made a splash in his old stamping ground.
Australia's former NFL player Colin Scotts said he had fielded calls from scouts about other league players with the capacity to make it in the NFL.
The Warriors-bound Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, Sam Kasiano, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves and Jason Taumalolo are the Kiwis named with the potential to make it in American football, Sydney's Daily Telegraph has reported.
