Tonga may be some 10,000 miles away, but Bradford and Bingley are aiming to make their overseas players feel at home this Christmas.
The Bees are roasting a whole hog on the spit on Christmas Eve - when the Tongans celebrate their Christmas - outside their clubhouse (2pm onwards).
And while Tevita Vaikona may not be available, the Wagon Lane club's other three Tongans (Chris Hala'uifa, Joe Nau and Jonny Tu'amoheloa) will be present.
Meanwhile, The Bees have been handed the toughest of draws in the last 16 of the Powergen Intermediate Cup on Saturday, January 17.
The leaders of North Division One must travel to Leominster in Herefordshire in the fifth round to face Luctonians, who are second in Midlands Division One.
"We are probably seeded one and two of the clubs left in the North and Midlands regions," said injured Bees centre Phil Greaves.
Greaves has fractured a scapula (shoulder blade) and will miss the tie, as will skipper Tom Rhodes (broken leg).
"We are both targeting the league match at home to second-placed Cleckheaton on January 31 for our comebacks."
In the fifth round of the Powergen Junior Vase, North Ribblesdale will be at home to Manchester Wanderers, unbeaten leaders of South Lancashire and Cheshire Division Three.
Leodiensian, conquerers of Bradford Salem in the last 64 on Saturday, are at Northallerton or Sheffield Tigers in what is still a wholly North-based draw.
