2024 Pacific Championships - 18 Oct to 10 Nov

[MRN]

Better luck next year PNG. I imagine unless Fiji improve monumentally, they'll will be back in this game next year for another crack at promotion.

What’s set

The last 40 minutes might have saved Jones’s career

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

They appear to have realised the only thing working is attacking left down the wing with Casey.

Im gonna put that on Hiku being on the right.

Eh, Hiku has massively outplayed Timoko all tournament

 

[Canard]

Big gap between the Tier 1 and 2 nations still, unfortunately

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Good game Kiwis. I can see PNG rising up the ladder in the next 10 years. Loving the IRL atm.

 

[Marshall_magic]

A few years back they had Vautin in the box for a Broncos v Warriors game.

Vautin had obviously not watched a single Warrior's game in years as he didn't know any player's name.

The cringe was real.

We used to do an over/unders when Rabs called a Sharks game around the time they won the comp. How many Sharks players would he call Feki? Usually it would be set around 6.5.

The real winner today was the Tongan bloke at the Southern end with the "Deport Me To KFC" sign

 

[Shoulder Charge]

An excellent sentiment, apart from calling the Tongans loyal when they are essentially all disloyal Kiwis and Aussies

Disloyal lol

Most of them played for Tonga before getting call ups for Aus and Kiwis lol

 

[This Year?]

Congrats to the Pacific champions. They should have won that by 18+ but lacked polish. I still can't understand the tactic of giving Smith and Burton 7 minutes. Grant was great as usual.
Part of me was hoping Tonga would win it for their red army who looked and sounded amazing on TV. Even at midnight there were Tongans driving around with flags. Lehi is going to be a superstar. Once the young man fills out a bit he's going to be unstoppable.

 

[Black Panther]

Smith is a middle, he should’ve got many more minutes than he did. Burton, not so sure.

 

[KennySterling]

Why were we sitting through Voss and Ennis again? Good lord.

My thoughts entirely. Double-punish.

 

[KennySterling]

Having this game last was the dumbest shit ever.

What WAS the thinking behind not having the Final as the (long) day's climax ? Bemusing.

Channel 9 but fortunately they are losing control as time goes on. By the next contract the NRL will have them by the balls. Live sport is pretty much the only thing FTA has left.

Live sport, and Farmer wants a Blockhead at First Sight.

Yes, some of the disloyal Kiwis and Australians played for Tonga before...playing for Tonga.

 

[Shoulder Charge]

Yes, some of the disloyal Kiwis and Australians played for Tonga before...playing for Tonga.

And you were ok to take them and not label them disloyal only after they came back to Tonga
