World 9s 2019

[Matua]

That’s what they are doing with RTS.

These Tests are pretty big for NZ. They are a real chance of beating Australia, and going 2-0 against GB. Could end the year undefeated.

Oh yeah, I don't give a toss about the 9s, I just want the Kiwis to win the tests. I wish we were playing Tonga again too.

Any word why Lam is out?

Any word why Lam is out?

Hopefully he will be available to play against GB.
