Farmduck Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 I can't find too many details about this game. It is being streamed - and presumably available for replay - on nrl.com Can't even find the teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmduck Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 I don't understand why this game features PMs XIIs. It's not like the WOmen's calendar is so packed that they couldn't fit a standard, full-strength Tests in. Same with the Men's game coming up tonight. Fiji has all these marquee players like Sivo and Vunivalu so when they get a home Test, why field a bunch of locals? 74min: Pio scores for Oz. Dibb misses the conversion. 22 - 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
