Running more upright than Jeremy Thrush

Good debut from Thomas Young.
Along with Dacey and Sam Davies, sons of former Welsh internationals.

This one's on a knife edge. Could go either way.
Wales has always struggled against Islander teams on a Friday night 😞
-
That was fucking rubbish from Roberts.
He should be buying all the drinks for that shit.
-
Gareth Davies doing his best Pikey Mike Phillips impression.
Get rid or go for it.

Hooray. Finally got one.
Tongan 10 pinged for neck roll.
Davies hits it.

Roberts and Davies with great kicks to pin Tonga deep in their own half.

Great finish for Wales.
Penalty try from a strong maul.
Assured, smart performance from Wales.
We've lost games like this in the past.
Strong debuts.
Sam Davies tried to get his backline moving.
Anscombe MOTM.

This was pretty much Wales A v a young Tongan team that was missing 4 players due to injury (incl Jack Ram) and only assembled 5 days ago. Not sure whether we could expect more than what we've seen tonight. As was just said in the post-match interview, it was good that Tonga could play in front of their fans in NZ, but it's even better that they can play their next games at home at Teufaiva Stadium in Nuku'alofa, which has just been re-opened today.
