The Tonga vs. Samoa World Cup clash lived up to its billing. Josh Morris joins Adam Hawse to answer the very legitimate question as to whether the clash now rivals State of Origin. With the semi-finallists determined, are the Australians really entitled to be favourites? Kevin Walters insists Latrell Mitchell is not on the outer, but it seems strange that a player of that calibre can't get on the field. November 1 has arrived, and it appears AJ Brimson will end up at the PNG Chiefs. They have some impressive names on their roster, but need forwards. And Nathan Cleary will not be at the Roosters.
