RL World Cup 2017 Thread...* SPOILERS

Those pencilling Fonua into our side may be a bit premature.

Really because he has been a damaging runner and through a good pass to set up a try that was denied because of the previous pass ? Paying in the centres when he has played mostly wing lately - not sure what your seeing but ive been happy so far

I see a player struggling badly with lateral movement in defence. Perhaps he is carrying condition?

I saw a bad miss on RTS, but Roger makes many players look silly.
He makes metres post contact in every run Ive seen today…hes gone OK imo

Much the same as Lolohea

Scary bad spine at the WT's in 2018

Some big lessons being learnt today

If you don't have players who can create something from what field position your forwards get you will struggle

Tonga need a quality 9 or 7 before they will match the 3 superpowers of League

Lolohea is a bit of a worry. I sure hope he's a better fullback than five eighth because he ain't no playmaker that's for sure. The fact that Hopoate is preferred as fullback over him doesn't fill me with much confidence tho.

What was that?

Tui you gem

What fantastic vision and anticipation from Lolohea to put Tonga in Front…

Lucky they are only playing New Zealand...Suprerpower..lol..one of your best..

 

[WswWt]

Yeah the Tui!

 

[innsaneink]

LOL

 

[WswWt]

BMM!

 

[Tacky]

Wow. New Zealand imploding.

 

[Geo]

Here come Tonga…Kiwis have no answer to Tonga's forward pack...

Fonua charges like a beast...

 

[Guest]

Tonga are going ballistic in the second half, they've got some pretty intense fans in the crowd too.

 

[earl]

Tui is a good player. He just does a lot of things right. Fonua looks like he could be another beast. BMM is a weapon. I want him back.

Nice work but an intercept does not make him a good playmaker.

 

[softlaw]

Great game of football!

 

[Spud_Murphy]

If we don't make RTS an offer he can't refuse, we are mad!

 

[Geo]

Cool hand Lolohea..

 

[Geo]

What a charge Fonua…

 

[HabboTiger]

I reckon lolo is improving.

Given they don’t have much options for 6 why would they put him at 1!? Especially as he hasn’t even moved to that position yet in nrl.

LoLo is much better now than his first WT game.

Fonua has been ok. Think he has something, certainly powerful.

 

[Geo]

Yessssssssss…...

Tui takes on the line on the 4th sucking in the Kiwis and Tonga Ice it out wide...

 

[innsaneink]

well…not yet....still time
