Pangai Jnr would have to be the unlucky one out. That's a good problem to have if I was a Tongan fan lol Lolohea will need to be at his best again to lead the tongans around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been out of form all season I agree Fifita has not been as good as he could be this season. He has been hampered by a leg injury as well and looks to be playing on one leg sometimes. I also think he is badly used in a poorly coached team and is often receiving the ball stood still rather than at pace. But here is the thing with Fifita... despite all that, he still tops the line breaks per game for edge forwards and 2nd in tackle busts. He really is an unbelievable physical threat and if he were in one of the top 4 teams with some playmakers and structure he would be almost unstoppable. I really hope we get to see him play in the World Cup.
