If anyone's interested in watching Tui or Mahe, you can see the Tonga v Italy trial match here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUwoWKvvy1g

Camerawork isn't great but Mahe bags a try around the 40 minute mark.

It will be funny Moses having to take instructions off Capt Farah after Farah nearly twisted Moses' ankle off his leg

 

[Harvey]

I would to have loved to see JT get the coaching job for Lebanon

 

[Tigerdon]

As we have two positions left in our Top 30, I’m interested to see how some O/S players outside the NRL go against the best players in the NRL

 

[Byron_Bay_Fan]

I would to have loved to see JT get the coaching job for Lebanon

what and left Farah on the bench all night and Lebanon lose by a failed field goal attempt - there will be 5,000 Faalagos at the gate.

Sooo...Woods got a start in the front row...

 

[WestsBenTigers]

It shows you how much better NSW forwards on paper are than QLD

We have 7/9 forwards who are going to play on Friday and that's without Vaughan, Campbell-Gillard, Fifita, Jackson, Crichton etc.

If we don't bash up QLD through the middle than Origin is either rigged or NSW well and truly suck.

A game is won and lost through the middle and that is where we are stronger than QLD.

It just shows how much we don't play with passion, energy and as a TEAM!!!

Were you thinking he wouldnt?

Well apparently from those North of the Border..far North..he's lucky to be in the squad…Mal only gave him the captaincy of the PMXIII to soften the blow...Stryk..

If we had a 9 like Smith or Qld didn’t have Smith controlling the middle ..things would have been different this year.

Gone fishin of late.

Getting exactly what you want and recognition for your performance is exactly the kind of "blow" I like.
