Jacobson looking like a long term AB already

This is definitely the game to make that prediction

Yes good point even Ioane A looking good

I love him but I hope this game isn’t used as a rational for keeping him till 2023. He shouldn’t have been there in 2019.

I think they'd have been better off doing probable v possibles and then have Tonga play the Maori and/or more likely the super sides sans thier stars.

@mackerzzzz he's thier captain and been playing for Tonga for years.

How many are they missing from Europe?

Always a hiding to nothing, and then they bring in club players.

Well ten of their 2019 starting team are players still playing in europe

I doubt it - perhaps 100-120. The ABs are doing a lot of running.

Yeetyaah

Sheesh they're walking slowly back to half way

@kirwan it is.

2 forward passes in that try

Yeah but the bench will come on really early and the ABs will switch off.

Pacific Cup: Maori, Japan, Tonga, Samoa (Fiji)

When Japan enters the Rugby Championship with Fiji, let the USA and Canada in.

Fuck I hope not.

Let’s kick everything back them and let them play while we just practise defence…

@machpants they already look switched off in thier body language and energy

26 of their 2019 squad are not available/ playing

Yeetyaah

Couple of shit passes from Dmac so far

Crucial

Not sure if I want to watch the rest of this.
Not learning anything we didn’t know.
Only point of interest is if Bridge can play himself out of the team.
