I been done with rugby since mid 2010s. The skytv paywalls, the continued marginalisation of island rugby, and the general colonial operation of it SUCKS. NFL is a much better game. Better coverage, fan engagement, podcasts, competition, I can go on and on.

Fk da police. Kia kaha brutha😊

WORD! Uce

Let’s be honest. NRL shits all over super rugby right now and the last 5-7 years. But International Rugby League is well behind rugby. No one wants to watch Aus, England and NZL compete, lucky for Tonga and Samoa they’ve finally come up with

Hey Eliota, if you were given the opportunity to produce all players who played for Western Samoa, would you be keen to make another episode dedicated to it? Honestly you would be doing all Samoans a great favour 💯 I know it’s a lot of research and there is a big chance of making a mistake but I think getting like minded people on a job like this would be epic!

USO our waka is your waka because we have the same Tipuna. Time for Polynesians to unite and take back our lands, Aotearoa, Tahiti, Noumea, Hawaii and Australia.

The Treaty of Waitangi represents all of Polynesians, the waka came from Savaii in Samoa so those on the waka represented those who stayed home in Samoa. I disagree uso you are part of Aotearoa by whakapapa, just as I can whakapapa to Samoa through my ancestor Puna Hamoa.

Kia Kaha uso

I love the concepts discussed in your podcast and I dialled in just now to watch...but the ease of swearing used is a put off....a shame as your content is important. Is it possible to bleep the swearing or remove the swearing? Indication of players using cannabis is of concern and can cause suspicion of players that may not be using cannabis in top level rugby.

American Samoa are the true Samoans. Samoa is gay

Love your diverse, educational and interesting korero usos☝🏽💚Polynesia

great points but your entire culture is completley and continually re- colonised over and over and over. whether you like it or not. the pakeha liberal is not your friend

Fiji is doing well in rugby in terms of hosting super rugby games. As for Rugby league.. Only hope they would held more international test.

She is surrounded by TEKAU MA RUA (The 12) These are leaders from all the Iwi regions across Aotearoa chosen to sit with her as advisors. Her role is massive but there are many people from all Iwi that will keep watch over her during her time as Te Kuini. She is young, has a big heart for the people and is the right person at this time. Big ups for the channel brothers.

Tbh not knowing anything about you Eliota, then watching this podcast...when I saw it was for the rugby, damn what a waste of Samoan Intelligence. Tbh the biblical parable of the 'talents' comes to mind. & no Im not bible bashing🤭 Spidy senses say🤣...south aukalani, favona, legal strategist for Ngati Samoa??? Who knows🤷‍♀️ maybe im just some weirdo on the internet🦄✨️🌈🐞🪽🇼🇸

On the mMiss Samoa thing? Personally I’m not a fan where my wife can’t stop watching that crap lol I just think it’s a terrible competition imagine being the dad of the losers? It’ll break hearts for sure

I’m a rugby fan and always will be I have boys that play league and I support them 💯 but at the end of the day I find myself watching heartland rugby npc rugby and all rugby lol I’m super proud of my daughter who’s made the counties manukau under 16s Cheehoo!! “Hey Rugby League” Rugby Union is your daddy 👀😂😂 GO MANU 🇼🇸💙

I smoked weed for 13 years and I enjoyed it while it lasted and I think it’s the greatest way to unwind😊

Definitely Lakapi Samoa need you Eliota somewhere in the administration. Or wait for Tuilaepa’s exit uso..

Man i appreciate the support of our Island tuakana

I thought the NRL was very one sided this year and it will get worse when they expand. The 1st week of the finals scores were 30-10; 37-10; 28-16 & 24-22 so only one game close. I wonder if you guys are actually following the sport you love with both eyes open or just parroting the same old Rugby League Mantra.

Māori may not have an independence day but we at least we fought when it mattered. Not a single Samoan battle recorded against the British regardless of what atrocities they did, Samoa didn't gain independence from protesting it was more politically correct at the time to give it to them considering the world state affairs at the time. No hate uso but its more complicated than just the mau movement.

1:15:34 Tonga has now appointed a gay attorney general from Wales. What's weird is that Tonga is now been forced to these agendas. My question why don't the west do this to Russia or China? China and Russsia will say get that agenda out of here

You invented swimming? Nice…

We’ll never know so it’s a bit of hard argument but if we apply the basics that proportionately more unvaxxed people were hospitalised and died from COVID along with the fact that Māori and islanders have disproportionately worse health outcomes, then it stands to reason that Maori and Apis would have died in droves had there not been a drive to get as many people vaccinated as possible. “Using” the church is an obvious thing to do to get people on board.

Samoa is all about tautua. Well....the question is who was given the SAMI and the ELE ELE. Who, prior to palagi distortion is all of Samoa suppose to recognize as the head and Tautua? Till Samoa answers this question it will forever be divided.

Thank you brother's

Kuini Nga Wai is well prepared for what is to come and she has the tautoko of most Maori

What Union media and the players themselves don’t do well, is tell the players stories. Ardie is the only one I can see actively promoting their brand. American Sports are easy to follow because we follow the players and the media create great storyline’s and we need something similar.

Rugby is light years behind the NRL. Like the games in Vegas have gotten people to fly over here to the states and have started to capture people to watch rugby league from a new market in America. So while Americans are waiting for the NFL to come back NRL is aiming to slide in as an exciting game to watch!

Rugby Union Has turned into a snooze fest man even the Promotion of The game is shit,

I’m pretty sure when union went woke with the Izzy Folau debacle they went broke.

At every single Kaupapa that the Kingitanga has held at Tūrangawaewae Marae or have attended in and out the country. She was always, ALWAYS, there behind her father. And I do agree with @hereforfun7806 that she has indeed been groomed for the role. She has spoken at numerous kaupapa Maori, speaking to our people about about what we need to be doing. So to be honest, I think she understood the mission long before she was crowned. And I don't think that being young is a disadvantage AT ALL. I believe that because she is young, she can connect with rangatahi and raise our generation up. She speaks Te Reo Māori ( FLUENTLY ), she has the love and adoration of Te Iwi Māori. And for many other reasons, I am not the least bit concerned for our Queen.

Plus open free market where players can freely go play for their islands if they want to...rugby scared and have to wait n go through all these loops in order to play for an island team period. I love manu samoa but now toa samoa is on top for example. Corrupt locally and not enough done from world rugby.

O ira na qauri dau talei taka me lau drami nodra cici 😅😂

Drami cici

Love this show hard.... I have only watched two episodes and loved every minute... thanks Boyz 💯

The decline of the all blacks has just started, scoty roby is shyte

Weed makes my erection strong, longer, harder and last long. That keeps my 2 girlfriends happy.

Super Rugby is dying …at this point you can start a wrestling promotion in NZ and it would draw more money and a larger audience.

🙏🏿🙏🏽🙏🏻

Its all cyclic rugby, league, bball, people change their minds like they change their undies

League fits the TikTok Instagram, fast food era. Nothing beats international tests.

I loved watching rugby but have over the last 20 years gravitating to league largely due to the fact rules are simpler and generally 9/10 the best team wins. In rugby the spectacle has been ruined by the officiating and the governing bodies prejudice against island countries has never changed.

I thought maluana is already legal wui 😂😂😂😂🤑

Only 10,000 watched the Kiwis beat the Kangaroos last year, it's easy to find good or bad stats. What about Fiji Drua's popularity? also many local derby Rugby matches in Super Rugby were well attended but that said there is a lot of work for Union to do outside of internationals.

There's more money in Rugby League. The minimum wage in a top 30 spot in rugby league is way higher than most your starters in super rugby.. With the dominance of the All Blacks throughout the decades, how did they not manage to capitalise on that and create a huge corporation like the NRL did? Check the NZR board pockets that's where all your money went
