I figured on here people will see the results as we get them. Actual fixture is always subject to change with travel anyway. But here is the last version I had, noting that Samoa is sending less than a full squad so will compete with the All Stars instead which includes Vanuatu, so presumably the Samoa matches will now be byes. A shame since Tonga and Samoa are arch rivals.

Solomon Islands' first rep footy squad set for Tonga

I know it's very early days in the "Pacific front" but I really hope some AFL scouts sign up 1 or 2 kids out of this tournament. The quicker AFL clubs see some results in draftees the sooner they will embrace more international support.

Clubs like Adelaide won't spend the cash on speculation like this but you'd think Collingwood would be happy to, and it's that kind of edge and the US altitude training trips that will keep them at the top of the ladder when the draft and salary cap aims to keep everyone level or in a cycle. Memo to AFL clubs - be conservative on talent speculation at your long term peril.
