    Tongan coach Kristian Woolf is adamant his side won't be chasing the big points spread they need in tonight's Pacific Championship showdown against the Kiwis

    Tongan coach Kristian Woolf is adamant his side won't be chasing the big points spread they need in tonight's Pacific Championship showdown against the Kiwis


    A first up loss to Samoa means the Tongans need to beat New Zealand by at least 18 points at Eden Park to qualify for next weekend's final in Sydney.

    Woolf says they need to focus on doing the basics first.



    Kickoff's at five past six.
