The counter ruck was from Akira Ioane, so they won't mention who did it.

Nice work rate late in the game

Fresh legs after the first half

Ahh fuck, Tongan Captain crying. This sucks

Agreed. To do this to proud players is near unforgiveable.

[Hooroo]

But sweet too. Really good to show what it means to play international rugby.

They really tried.

Perhaps stop asking him questions when he clearly doesn't want to talk

[Yeetyaah]

Emotional Tongan captain. Wonder if Keith Quinn will have any macho man bullshit to say about it.

Why the fuck would you have a trophy for this game

[Yeetyaah]

Classy from Whitelock to get the Tongans in for the photo

Some are still in quarantine? Shit.
they tried hard.
NB Whitelock could be a decent AB captain and he doesn't win many MOTM but he is almost always so solid for the ABs-will leave a massive hole,

Yep. Ben Tameifuna is one of them.

What was the point of this. We would have been better suited to a north south game. Tonga can not take anything at all from this game. Nothing.

They really needed another game before this at least

I don't think I've ever seen a team less enthused about winning a trophy

He's giving away a lot of penalties. Could be the slide making it hard to keep him in two years.

Lol someone gave Read the short seat. He looks tiny on the panel. 😂

He mentioned that. But his workrate and involvement is still high quality.

Sam Whitelock is one classy guy. Despite playing Super Rugby for the Sith, one of my favourite ever ABs. Great to have him as Captain while Sam Cane is out.
