Time for Equality: Tonga and Samoa Urge NRL
The rise of Tonga and Samoa has highlighted the need for more fairness in funding and support in the international game.
Tonga's coach, Kristian Woolf, stated that the Suncorp Stadium match is the "best example of what the two nations bring to the sport of rugby league" and that this should lead to greater "respect" and resourcing.
Samoa's coach, Ben Gardiner, backed Woolf's claims, with both teams pointing to issues beyond pay, including travel and off-field conditions.
