Tonga vs Ireland

[St Helens RLFC]

Easily the best match so far, finished 22-20 to Tonga with a late try from the Tongans stealing the victory. Really enjoying the tournament so far.

Good match.. I was surprised by the quality. Anyone know why Fui Fui Moi Moi couldn't play?

The court ruled them ineligible afterall (Tuiaki as well) *see http://tvnz.co.nz/view/page/417227/2234666 .. but why is Hayne allowed to play for Fiji?

Anyway... it was a great game! i see the merits of how the Rugby League fellows did up the pools/groups.

Loved this game, both teams gave it their all. Big hits and some good ball movement, it was a showcase. How about Lauaki at the end, is he unfit or what? Coach should get him to do a cpl of 400s before he steps onto the field. I have never seen a pro player so unfit!

You have to love BBC with their summaries

Awesome game by Tonga, aswell as their last try.

I hope they can make it to the next round.
