It's difficult to judge as we've not seen the Cook Islands yet but I'd expect them to fancy their chances against Tonga going off tonight's performance. |

The quality of coach and support staff is something that is starting to show in the last few days I think.
I don't know much about Charlie Tonga other than he was once a fringe firstgrader who played 22 NRL games for 2 clubs, but it shows that he isn't a top flight coach I think. Tonga had the cattle, he just didn't get them to perform.
On the other hand we have seen Rick Stone use NRL experienced support staff and put in the time with Fiji, and we see they have made huge strides since the last WC.
If a top flight coach had put the same amount of time and effort into Tonga as Stone put into Fiji, I think the talent he would have had to work with would mean we would see a very strong contender for the semis.

Nope! But then again I gave them no chance against France...or Italy against England...or Scotland against Tonga.
So what the hell do I know! |

Yes but you have to open your mind to the fact that underdogs can, and do sometimes win.
Ali beat Liston
Sheffield beat Wigan
Wimbledon beat Liverpool
Gazza beat Sheryl
David beat Goliath
SH!t HAPPENS. |
