[roughyedspud]

You can’t play for two rep teams on the same weekend, the laws don’t come in to it.

Nsw play 3 games....Tonga only 1

@hutch answered this in post 58

NSW selection policy was to pick only players that would be available for the whole Origin series.

 

[roughyedspud]

And that's their policy...but playing for nsw doesn't make you ineligible for Tonga as it appears TPJ has been told

Is this the end? You seriously need a smack in the head.

Lost to Tonga and Fiji... And foreign teams get more fans to there games then the home team at the last World Cup... Most of your best players turn you down for Tonga and the kangaroos your tier 1 status will end very soon should I go on? ‍

 

[Pommy]

You can...

Not if the states won’t select you because your not available you can’t.
As happened this year.

Look, I know you're just on the troll but that's not even remotely true, Taumalolo and Fusitua are the only two who would be considered our best players of the Tongans.

You should go on. We'll see the dawning of a new kiwi era in a few weeks.
