| The 2009 Pacific Cup will be a big improvement on past rugby league tournaments involving pacific nations. On the back of the growth of the international game and a successful World Cup the Rugby League International Federation (RLIF) have implemented a schedule that includes ongoing international competitions for 2nd tier rugby league nations in the pacific.

| Only 2 games? That's disappointing, would have maybe liked to have seen a 3 week league structure.

I'd imagine this years competition will be be used to learn lessons and next years Pacific Cup will be something more akin to the Four Nations.

Amazing scoreline. I'd read that Samoa were maybe a little unprepared, but never saw that coming. Who said international rugby league was predictable?

They didn't expect it. Apparently Cook Islands made no plans for progressing on for the rest of tournament.

No the coverage of the game has been pretty dire considering the match finished 5 hours ago. There is a little piece on sportinglife.com which offers a few quotes from the Cook Islands coach but nothing about who scored etc.

Always comes through Sporting Life. Puts the BBC to shame.
Can't wait to see the Cook Islands in next year's Four Nations

You'd have to look through and see how many Australian born and raised players who have played the game all their lives in Australia are in the Cook Islands side.
Having said that, I know how much English fans get upset when they see non white players in the Australian team.
