The international rugby season kicks off for many of our Pacific rugby players with the start of the Pacific Nations Cup in Suva on August 23.

That’s when Manu Samoa take on Fiji as it continues to build in this Rugby World Cup cycle. Problem is, the money required to remain competitive is running low and so, Manu Samoa have announced it will not be going on an end-of-year Northern Hemisphere Tour unless World Rugby coughs up more money.

It’s the eternal problem for Rugby in the Pacific and here to give his view is former Manu Samoa Rugby Captain Mulitalo Filipo Levi.
