PNG Kumuls v Fiji Bati | Match Highlights | 2023 Pacific Championships 

😅😅

Yep. Fiji started off with the praise song on PNG soil. They were in sync

Makes complete sense.

All week they were saying kumuls will smashed bati 😂😂

Fiji showed Pride ridden Kumuls how it's done

Union has really really gone soft & woke.

I'm into league now

Cos Kumuls werre playing for the crowd and trying to act tough in the field 😂😂

The mighty kumuls?? 😂😂...after that performance you still calling them that 😂😂😊

@@user-vc7us3zx7jTamana me ratou laveti cake tikoga na Kumuls, voleka tale tiko na veiqaqiraki o irà na kena dauniveitokoni.

@@user-vc7us3zx7j for the sake of the landowners, we have to keep calling them "The Mighty Kumuls"...... ......or else.....

​@@eskay.u2277 levu ga na tara masa 😂😂

That's basically what happens when the halves are in sync, especially Donoghue at 6

Siua Wong play for Tonga now

@@IceCold4132 Yes its his choice and we've got huge depth in the forwards no problem

Imagine if they keep players like Semi, Koroibete, Vunivalu, Sadrugu etc at rugby league.

To you yes, in fiji nobody cares about league and they still beat us lol

@@kumulsfan8090 that's right! in Fiji, Union has a bigger following and funding than League, but still, what a performance from these Bati Boyz!!!!!

👍

Not natural mate were naturals at plenty sports you can thick of not on rugby league we end up with rugby league when there is no place for us in union...rugby league is a 2nd or 3rd choice apart from rugby union and athletics. We got it all size, height, weight, strength there's literally thousands of our own rugby union players playing abroad and for other nations that speaks of 1 thing were naturally gifted ruggers than any other melanesian counter part..

hahah, in laws!! funny, mate 😄

I think they already are ,people forget fiji has reached the semifinals of the world cup 3 times in a row ,only samoa has done one better by reaching the final

Agreed

Too right.

That's been our problem ever since we started playing this sport. A good lesson from our big brothers.🇫🇯🇵🇬

@@weremanunitedpng you mean "small brothers"?? heheh PNG is the big brother 😀

@@GitXxxd I meant it in terms of independence. You got it in 1970 and we got it in 1975. So yeah 5 years older. Probably out of context.😊

...wanbel...larim ol kumul skelim lus blo ol na maski lo acting big boi wataim kusai tingting...daunim na play gut lo nex game.

Or Fiji 15s

To what extentence do you think any other Pacific Island Nation can have an NRL team apart from PNG? You have content to your statement?

@@RaycohXI You know the answer.

@@MangiParadise-vt2ir you made a statement without content. You are better of doing your research and not be schooled.

@RaycohXI I don't need your lecture. Do more reading about the economic dynamics of PNG and the continous deficit budgets before your talk.

@RaycohXI your PNG team is for the Australian political convenience to fend off Chinese influence; nothing about the economics of the sports.

Cos you all thought they ong is badass in league for the Pacifica..sit down and follow your lane

@@user-vc7us3zx7j I take it you saw the rematch today? Maybe it is you who should sit down and follow your lane,lol.

Look down on fiji and get smashed. Don’t ever look down on these pacific island nations

Look down on fiji ?? Fiji has reached the semifinals of the world cup 3 times in a row ,I doubt png has ever done at least one of that watch it ,look down on fiji at your own peril

​@Kongo-Slade007 As a Fijian, it's amusing to see comments saying that we are looked down upon in rugby😂😂

Fijian Silktail for NRL would be nice😊

No I think PNG deserves it because it’s a Number 1 Sports in their country.

Fiji have a team in the NSWRL at the moment. Next year they will have fiji flegg side as well. The pathways are there for an NRL side. unforuntately,fiji dont have the depth. They are all going to rugby union thanks to the fiji druas inclusion into super rugby.

If FNRL wants to bid then yes, but for now the Kaiviti Silktails working their way up to the main NSW competition itself is a priority.

They don't have enough money.

Exactly 💯 true 👍 👏 we need majority local players in Team Kumuls.

PNG was humbled😂

😂😂...cos of too much pride...you fans need to learn to be humble first 😂😂

What past experience?? You probably dont know your history on home soil. PNG have not won on home soil against Fiji Bati... 1998 (14-10) , 2011 (26-12) , 2023 (43-16)

😂😂😂...another NRL excuses to justify the lost at home by the so called Brick wall 😂😂

same here..... even if we won, I expected the score to be very close..... like the RWC'23 Final!!

Too many Aussie Kumuls neglecting PNG local boys and local coach too.

no, PNG had the Heat!! Fiji only took the Ice..... 😄

Humility is what won Fiji the game. As a Fijian fan you should also be humble. Bula mai Viti.

PNG's national sport since independence and yet so poor.😂

​@RushRiverside humility is in our nature as Fijians ..we don't boast how good we are and blah blah compared to the arrogant png fans ..remain in your lane png...Fiji is the power house in league and union ...learn to be humble

Absolutely..they thought they are the badass of league in the pacific and thinking they bully bati 😂😂

They split the pools where the other one is the so-called "Top tier Pool" basically

Longlong em yu

Too many white...less mrl players...super league players are not good enough ...excuses..excuses...just be humble and learn to accept defeats...pmg just look tough but not good enough for the Batis...we are the humble giant...

Exactly 💯 bro Majority of the team Kumuls should be local boys and PNG local coach as well. Let Hulbruk as assistant coach is ok.

Thats King Vuniyayawa. He is one of two british fijians playing for the bati. In england he plays for salford Red Devils in the super league. The other british fijian is number 18 Jason Qareqare. he plays for the castlefield tigers in the super league.
