    Win or lose bro is a legend to the Tongan people, i can still vividly remember the matches played in New Zealand 2017 and 2019 sea of Red where they defeat New Zealand and Australia.
    Haven't seen such passionate fan base in league ever. Still gets chills rewatching it.

      I think Tongans who ACTUALLY watch NRL know our spine is outclassed for sure, but just hoping they can prove us all wrong and at least make the Aussies work for their win. Supporting the 🇹🇴 Tokos Always!

He shut down a offer from NZ a top tier nation to play for Tonga which sparked and inspired other islander players/teams to do the same by representing their heritage loud & proud , instead of buying in to top tier teams.

      That would be nice but no way will they allow it. Look at the kiwis, all the Samoan and Tongans playing for the islands making their selection stocks slim. They’ll never allow the Kangaroos to be diminished a little.

    I honestly dont rate Woolf as a coach. I watched all 3 games against England and we took over a strong squad but we were outplayed and outcoached in all 3 games despite what the scoreboard said at fulltime. Tonga played alot of one-out footy and Woolf took alot of his personal favourites over there and it showed. Siliva Havili and Tui Lolohea are Ron Massey level players.

  • @megaworldasia360
    @megaworldasia360 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    TBH, I don't understand why it's not 4 teams. The tournament would still run the same length of time but no team would have a bye. The problem is that one of the southern hemisphere has to go to the UK each year for a test series against England. Next year it's gonna be either the kiwis or Kangaroos who have to go up there.

    Out of the 3 teams, the kangaroos have the best backline by some margin. Tonga might just have the best forward pack. The kiwis will miss Hughes, Brown, Leota, NAS, Mulitalo, and Manu a lot. If the roos get parity in the forwards, I think their backs will get the job done.
