All Blacks v Tonga

antipodean

It's Tonga

It's severely depleted COVID Tonga.

This is MT Smart. If it was at Eden Park more people would have turned up.

Tongans have shifted their focus to League.

If Abs fans can't turn up to see a cricket score the Tongan fans aren't going to turn up to see their team on the wrong end of it.

Regarding point four: If they haven't by now, they will have by the end of this travesty.

No Quarter

This shouldn’t be a Test match

You'd expect a club team to tackle a bit better than that. This is going to get really ugly.

Sky Go is back. Not sure it matters. This is an opposed training run. Correction, this is an unopposed training run.

This is like when Auckland took the shield on tour to heartland teams.

Tordah

no matter the opposition, passes still have to stick and it's great they do

yep. somebody who does gifs/memes/emoticons/whatever the fuck... it's already the one from Simpsons with the kids crying “stop it! stop it! he's already dead!”

TJ

This is really hard to watch so far. There really is nothing so gain here.

Machpants

24-0 not even 9 minutes. Almost butchered by Tupea

Kirwan

So 145 is on I guess.

This kind of sucks

Nevorian

Jacobson looking like a long term AB already

KiwiMurph

Stop kicking the ball Tonga. It ain't working

antipodean

This is worse than anyone expected.

Imagine if this was your one and only Test cap for Tonga.
