    Tonga's looking to overcome the effects of a mini-break in tonight's Pacific Championships clash against New Zealand at Mt Smart

    Tonga's looking to overcome the effects of a mini-break in tonight's Pacific Championships clash against New Zealand at Mt Smart

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    After a strong build-up in Brisbane, Tonga lost to Australia before disbanding while the Kangaroos beat the Kiwis in Christchurch.

    Coach Kristian Woolf says it was strange having time off in-between games, but there are positives in having a week off.



    Kick-off tonight is at five past eight with the winner to meet Australia in next weekend's final in Sydney.
