2017 RLWC - B - W3 - NZL 22-28 TON @ Hamilton

[Warriors Fever]

This has been great I love rugby league soooo much

 

[Coastbloke]

You'd be welcome back anytime mate

Hope it's all going well with you and yours

Thanks mate. I did have some fun lol..

lol

 

[Life's Good]

Even if there's a better game I can't see it having even half the atmosphere of this game

So true. The crowd chants & noise are up there with EPL or even the cricket with Aust vs. India in India.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Tonga kept coming and NZ were busy patting themselves on the back when they should have been trying to turn the screws.

Good on Tonga. Hopefully this is the start of something more for international league. It really should be.

 

[Clifferd]

So likely semis

Aus v NZ
England v Tonga

Can see an Aus v Tonga final happening which would be good

 

[Leber]

This is basically a historic sporting moment worldwide.

Sadly, in most newspapers it'll be back page stuff

 

[Miller was a legend]

Wow how good is that!

 

[Mixmasterreece]

Congratulations to the txt message cowards.

 

[mxlegend99]

Absolutely pumped for Tonga here. Great game. Great win. NZ didnt seem prepared for az contest.

 

[carlosthedwarf]

Imagine watching this and not being excited for international rugby league's future

 

[Danish]

I wish I owned a KFC franchise in Hamilton tonight

In theory, yes you do.

In practice, no you f**king don’t.

Imagine the having to inform the patrons once you have run out of food

 

[Life's Good]

To be fair after the first 40 it was hard to see Tonga coming back and winning. They showed nothing until they decided to throw the ball around a bit

And isn’t it great to see. No block plays just plenty of hard running & good support play with a bit of luck thrown in.

 

[Coastbloke]

This is League's version of Japan and Stth Africa in the yawnion, but the difference is that is unlikely to happen again, wheras League has a golden opportunity to make this a regular clash

Agreed. I wrote them off. I thought that Tupou no try was going to be the difference.

Glad it wasn't.

 

[Pedge1971]

Geez I thought Lolohea had his Brock Lamb moment for a second there. But Tonga hang on. ..

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Salty kiwis.

“We come from a little nation”.

David you were born and raised in Auckland you mug.

 

[Jim from Oz]

How good was that! Rugby league I love you!
