Huge 'Grazi' to the Italians for taking the time to tour the Pacific islands. It really means a lot to the home islands to watch tier-one nations play. This is growing the game.
It was beautiful, but at the same time, it doesn't look good because there are not many supporters interested in watching the game. It's so sad. Come on my Tongan. Let us support the boys.
Italys ball movement was sweet. Having played against Tonga, some 40 plus years ago, I know firsthand there is no shortage of toughness/never say die in every one of their players. Great match.
No one helped NZ to their position, they got where they are by being fuggin awesome. Perhaps Tonga should just do the being fuggin awesome thing for thirty or forty years instead of holding their hands out like some pouty welfare queen.
Beau match des Italiens qui ont joué sur un tempo élevé, ce qui lui a permis de trouver des espaces dans la défense tonguienne. Après deux matchs contre les costauds du Pacifique, un tout autre match les attend contre les dinamiteros nippons ! Bella partita degli Azzurri che hanno giocato su un ritmo alto, che gli ha permesso di trovare spazi nella difesa tonguiana. Dopo due partite contro i robusti del Pacifico, un tutt'altro incontro li attende contro i dinamiteros nipponici!
The fact that Italy chose to play first in Samoa and then in Tonga is something that, regardless the result, I appreciate a lot (even just to organize I believe it's not so easy); nothing extraordinary of course, but I think it's fair to say that. 🍺
Italy had too many referees playing on their team. Took away from a strong performance against Tonga at home. That looked like a pleasant pitch to watch an international. Not much of a crowd, though. Credit to Italy for organizing what must have been an expensive tour. Rugby needs more of those.
The main stand with the majority of crowd is on the same side as the TV camera. 4000 reported there overall, which for a country with a population of only 100k isn't too bad.
Very pleased for Italian rugby. I hope they continue to get some deserved wins. They play with passion and flair and a win will lift their spirits. Hope they do well in next 6 nations 👍
Remember italy beat wales in the 6 nations this year twice and have just come of the back off that 6 nations. Tonga has done well with such little preperation in comparison. Good game..!
Bravo! So good to see Italy touring Tonga. More of this world rugby. Why were the zitalaians so scare dof being tackled by the Tongans? How did these guys ever have a military empire. 😂
The fact that Italy has come off a 6 Nations tournament gives them game time advantage....Pacific Island teams only plays first time together by the time International tests comes around. Welldone Tonga, welldone Italia 👊
@@WhoAmEye187 Well it’s true. Tonga don’t often play at home, but they usually play better there. They won their last 3 games at home, including one against Australia A who had a lot of Wallabies in their team. Even Fiji struggle to beat them there when they have a much better team on paper.
Wrong. There are 16 Clubs and 12 schools in Union from Seniors to under 12s. Only 5 League clubs and 4 schools (all Mormon lol). MMT only popular in NZ and Aus. League will never be big in the Pacific Islands
They're all in Australia watching rugby league man. 😅😅😅. Not only that cuz, they all migrants to Australia. Tonga island and Samoan island will soon be empty because they all migrants to Australia. Would you like to move in cuz? 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂
Why did the referee blow the final whistle after awarding the penalty try. Surely Italy had the opportunity to convert the try! The score should have been 36 - 14 and not 34 - 14.
Fiji, Samoa,Tonga and chuck in Māori All Blacks have to organize a competition every year. Tonga shouldn't be losing against Italy and Samoa at home just scraping to beat Italy. Surely the government own airlines can waiver the transport fees it's a matter of urgency for these small Island Countries. These Island Countries have to do something. Give the people something to love; in the name of Jesus. The game that's played in Heaven.
"Tonga shouldn't be losing to Italy" Man, you're a natural-talented comedian You know that this is the team that has beaten Wales, Scotland and has drawn with France right? Thank god that the scoreline has been merciful today.
Not bad for a c team. Missing some of the moana & world cup players.. just need to cut out the ill discipline & play smarter. Too much emotions involved
Bruh 🤦🏽♂️ the islands always complaining we don’t get enough rugby down here, they get a test against a tier 1 and look at that rubbish turnout. Needa take a leaf out of Fijis book my tokos
Samoa beat Italy last week, 25-33, the super rugby really helps the Pacific brothers improve In the sport, I think Tonga did pretty well, it not always easy to beat a tier 1 nation
@@francelewiss7030 no no I’m not talking about how the team performed, I’m talking about people coming out to support and watch the game. Atmosphere in Fiji is crazy, idk why Tonga and Samoa locals can’t do the same.
First try, the scorer was clearly tackled and held and never released the ball before getting up and going again. If you want tacklers releasing tackled ball carriers, you have to also insist that tackled ball carriers properly release the ball before they regain their feet.

Well done Italy 🇮🇹! Respect to Tonga 🇹🇴
Huge 'Grazi' to the Italians for taking the time to tour the Pacific islands. It really means a lot to the home islands to watch tier-one nations play. This is growing the game.
It's always a pleasure to see our Pacific brothers ;) Thanks for having us!
Fantastic rugby ground... beautiful setting for international Rugby 🏉
😂😂😂
Is just Tonga style,lets be happy that they still provide high level rugby talents plus a super enjoy to watch rugby style! Regards!

Bellissimo questo stadio! Il fondo del prato sembra veramente ottimo, mischie a ripetizione e nemmeno una zolla di terra alzata! Complimenti 👏👏👏🔝
It’s good to get Tonga out there and face more northern hemisphere countries it builds themselves up to face stronger foes
Good game
Thank you for not putting the score in the title!!
Yup its so deflating when they do put the score in the title ay bro! Ametures
🫡
italy doing more for these teams then NZ

Definitely! More tier 1 nations should do it!
They shared hotel with Tonga and trust me the nutritionist went crazy when he saw the food options both in Tonga and Samoa, the logistics is hard too…
Good game Tonga, there always time for improvement, Malo Italian le kaalo, thanks for touring in our Pacific Moana land...
Grazie toko
Bravi ragazzi! Testa al Giappone ora

Bella vittoria bravi 🇮🇹🏉
Italy should be congratulated for having the courage to play the island teams on their home turf. Thanks
Very pleased for Italian rugby. I hope they continue to get some deserved wins.
They play with passion and flair and a win will lift their spirits.
Hope they do well in next 6 nations 👍
With that crowd hopefully Tongan Rugby can recover the costs of printing the programs 😮😂
😂😂
To much yaqona.😂😂

Pas mal ce qu'a proposé l'Italie sur ce match , plutôt bien construit.👍
Italy too smart and slick for Tonga
Fantastica Italia♥️♥️♥️👏

Credit to Italy, its not easy to beat Tonga in Tonga. Although idk how many players they might have been missing.
Lmap.its not easy beating Tonga in Tonga? That's a nice joke 😂

@@WhoAmEye187 you never experienced heat in Tonga coz youve never been there...keep talking from your coach bro.
Tough luck Tonga, well played Italy
The bias commentary is hilarious 😂
😄nothing wrong with that, I am Italian, you should try to listen to OUR commentators😆
Great
I didn't see the Italian winger release the ball before the 1st try....
huge weather difference between Tonga and Samoa.....
It’s frustrating the ref took the game nearly 90 minutes over time
Go Tonga moari cuzzies from nz
WHY DONT NZ PLAY THEM?
@@tvpc3194 they used to play them I don't why they don't play them they should they haven't played Samoa but they are going to play Fiji in the USA
They used to play the moari. Moari played Japan and beat them Japan beat the moar
Hey cuzzy, stop sending the lamp chopped to us because it's a lot of fat on it bro? Come on cuz, give us a meet not fat.😂😂😂
tonga rugby union dying...mate ma'a tonga will live on
Support them win or lose Toko don’t do them like that.
I hate that, but it seems to be true..
Grassroots Tongan rugby, the stars are stuck in Europe and overseas
Wrong. There are 16 Clubs and 12 schools in Union from Seniors to under 12s. Only 5 League clubs and 4 schools (all Mormon lol). MMT only popular in NZ and Aus. League will never be big in the Pacific Islands
@@Fijianzionhaha yeah
Congratz Italy
Ioane: Samoan Maximus 🤣💦
Maybe if Tonga didn't miss so many tackles they might be more competitive
Italians were too physical for Tonga, Tongans too busy putting fat weight on instead on lean muscle. It cost them.

Where are the crowds? Very disappointing
They're all in Australia watching rugby league man. 😅😅😅. Not only that cuz, they all migrants to Australia. Tonga island and Samoan island will soon be empty because they all migrants to Australia. Would you like to move in cuz? 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂
@@EddieTomasi you sound so fob lol. You make no sense
Why did the referee blow the final whistle after awarding the penalty try. Surely Italy had the opportunity to convert the try! The score should have been 36 - 14 and not 34 - 14.
Penalty tries are automatically 7 points. No need to convert
@@Pesso86 Thank you!
kovi aupito Tonga!
What happened with the rumor that Italian players were arrested and banned from playing?
Because they eat island food and they over weight in two days.😂😂😂😅😅😅. To 130kg is allowed, but they went to 160kgs.😅😅😅😅.
Knock-on at 3:23
36 - 14, not 34
Where were the fans? Where were the seats?
They took all the seats away because it's rugby league grounds. 😂😂
The main stand (and majority of the crowd) was on the same side as the TV camera
Poor result from tongan team
Sheesh Tonga sucks 😂 guys need to get in shape
Fiji, Samoa,Tonga and chuck in Māori All Blacks have to organize a competition every year.

@@stefanorigo9963 but the horsey is in Tonga LOL
This isn’t the old Italy team this team is a lot better then before and have beatin some top teams.
Italy is literally a six nations side beating tier 1 teams like scotland n wales stop talking out your ass
Where Is all Tongan? Ain't you guys happy when rugby world's comes to our bk yard?
Exactly right, more games in the islands means people need to be there in attendance but I blame the organizers for that.
Not bad for a c team. Missing some of the moana & world cup players.. just need to cut out the ill discipline & play smarter. Too much emotions involved
Thats their A team.
@@andrewmartini8893 not even close. They had like 6 players debuting & was also missing many of their best players
@@floziq8117 that's the a team

First Tongan try there was a foul in the ruck
nope he was moving in the roll and the tackle was broken...look again with your glasses on bro...
Tongan number 10 was useless & the worst first five in the world.
True, thought Tonga played better with William Havili at fly half than Faiva
