How can it keep getting worse? What happens to Tonga now? Apparently teams can change their squad (due to injury) up until the start of the tournament, does this mean we could potentially see a player train with one team for a week or two and then get the call up to another - we have such a good product but there's always something  |

I heard they could change until the start of the tournament and then are locked into their final 24.
However........ this IS International Rugby League and rules are made to be ignored!

This is complete and fucking utter bullshit. See this is perfectly the situation that I have always argued would happen if they were not picked for NZ. We all knew they were crap and only made the NZ squad... sorry NZ went sulking to the RLIF about not having players in their sqaud... becaus of injuries. The RLIF needed to put the foot down and said "NO, they have played test for TONGA so they are tongans not Kiwis... go develop your own feking talent for once instead of poaching everone elses as it suits".... australia will be in this same situation one day you wait and see. Actually you know what... I have no sympathy for Moimoi, Tonga, NZ, or the RLIF on this one... they have brought this on themselves by all being either gutless or kniving pricks poaching players... I am glad I gave Andrew Chalmers a spray in Paris last year now on this issue, I should have done it to Moi Moi as well when I met him. Fucking rediculous... and we wonder why people look at our sport as a joke! Christ almighty. OK I am pissed off now... there goes my day! |

He;s pretty hopeless just moving around the field. basically he's a crash ball. Just counter punch him. That's the best way to beat big fellas. |

Whats happening with the Tongan squad now.
It seems Sam Moa has been called in to replace Louis Anderson as he has been named to face the kiwi's this Saturday.
Now I see a rumour Fraser Anderson is also injured!
Any ideas who is replacing him if this is true?
Have to say though it's STILL a very strong Tongan team, the Kiwi's will have to play smart tomorrow.
