Wales are missing their 6 or 7 best players, pretty much all their first grade players are out. This team is just a bunch of old journeymen and young kids, and two Aussie ringers wearing #4 and #7 who let in 6 tries between them. TBH a full strength Wales team would've given PNG a shake here.

For a team with such a proud RL heritage that was embarrassing, whatever the excuses.

Not much to read into this. Wales were always gonna be up against it in PNG but just too many SL injuries. Their performances will improve across the tournament (although Fiji will probably put up a score too) and their depth will improve by 2021.
 

This Year?

I thought it was great watching PNG put it on for their fans. Looked like a great atmosphere. Just a shame Wales couldn't be competitive in any aspect of the game.
