Tonga v Australia 'A'

[Stargazer]

Wow, what a try. Tonga lucky with the bounce of the ball. Good kick from Inisi.

[Steven Harris]

What a weapon Piatau is

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer great piece of skill by Inisi - the ball is more likely to sit up like that when you chip the ball on it's end

[Stargazer]

I really hope Solomone Funaki returns to the Magpies, next season. One of the best opensides in SRP. If he played in a better SR team, he'd get more recognition.

[Steven Harris]

Best 40 minutes i have seen from a Tongan team in a very long time

[KiwiMurph]

Aside from Tupou, no Aussie really putting their hand up in the first half. Gordon at 9 I suppose was ok

[Bovidae]

The Aussie commentator needs to at least try and be neutral.

Gordon at 9

Apparently, he has no hope of making the Wallabies anymore, this year.
I just read this morning that he has signed with Toulon as RWC cover (so a short-term signing, he'll return to SRP next season).

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer ah good call. Sounds like what Lolesio has also done

[Tim]

Wish I could mute this Australian commentator.

[Stargazer]

@Tim Yep, hearing only the Tongan commentator would be much better.

[KiwiMurph]

Aus bench has made a nice impact.

[Stargazer]

What's not helping the commentary is that you can (sometimes) hear more commentators in the background; I assume radio commentators.

[KiwiMurph]

Aus A should have picked Debreczeni in their squad. He'd be a good option to bring on now.

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph Is he eligible for Aussie?

[KiwiMurph]

Slick Aus A try. Game of two halves.

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer said in Tonga v Australia 'A':

@KiwiMurph Is he eligible for Aussie?

He's been called up to the larger Aus A squad so I assume so.

[KiwiMurph]

Wilson has been impressive - far better than Uru

[Stargazer]

Commentator keeps saying Augustine Pulu is the Tongan reserve halfback, but that's Manu Paea isn't it (as named)?

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer Yes. Pulu is running the water/tee
