Tonga wins against USA Rugby June 16th 2013

According to the Fiji Times " In the 15th, Tonga made a switch to Piukala who had no trouble dotting down between the sticks for the first try of the match, with Hakalo kicking the conversion to give the visitors a 10-3 lead. Toby L'Estrange caught the Tongan defence off guard in the 18th minute, getting the ball to Andrew Suniula who drew a penalty for Wyles to convert and cut the deficit to 10-6. The French connection of Takudzwa Ngwenya and Scott LaValla, who each play in France's Top 14 with Biarritz and Stade Francais respectively, almost created the Eagles' first try of 2013 before the end of the half, but Ngwenya's pass was too high for LaValla to reach. Two minutes into the second half, however, the Eagles were dealt a blow when Piukala added his second try." End score of the match was Tonga to win against USA 18-9.

Impassioned Plea to the Welsh people to Win on losing ears

Jed Thian, bloated out a full on plea and warning to Welsh Rugby Fans about the coming on-slaughtering of their Welsh Rugby Team. The thing is, people aren't so sad to see Australia win this one to it's limit. If Wales loses this one, which as of now looks to be another fumble, they fall in the IRB ranks even further. It's a wonder that they're still up there really considering the losses. France will hold tight in the rankings, but it looks as though Australia and Samoa "The Giants Killers", might be looking down soon on the Northern Rugby Hemisphere. No one is counting out England and Scotland at all, but it looks like in the future the spots for 2,3,4,5, and 6, will be a fun rank battle.
