Bridge did something good. Drink. Hmm Weber must have taken his red bull.

Our 12 isn't perfect. DMac and Richie look so slick and fast against these club players but George "Did you drop a hankerchief? I'll pick it up for you and fall over" Bridge is trying to keep it close.

Actually, is Bridge still injured? He doesn't look to be running at 100%.

nostrildamus

what is the prediction Tonga is going to kick for space and time for 60 minutes?

Gunner

Feel sorry for Tonga, this is a massacre.

Maybe he is. But then he shouldn't be playing.

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.
