Tough job for OZ selectors. Hard to split the 2 FBs, all the wingers were good. Kelly and Sergis probably the better centres.

That game illustrates one of those statistical "lies." Both sides made 11 errors but NZ made them on the last tackle deep into attacking territory while Tonga made them trying to get out of their own half.

This game is being played under NRL rules. Why not International rules in a world cup year?

Second half is currently a mistakeathon for both teams.
