    What a season it has been in the NRL. Once again our Polynesian brothers and sisters have showcased what natural talent we have in this great game we play. With the numbers of Polynesian players growing every year we took time out to honour some of the best players that in our opinion have excelled this year. We have named our Inaugural ''Pasifika Team Of The Year''. Like everything we do there are a lot of arguments in who we chose and why but the conversations surrounding a ''Pasifika team'' playing an ''All Stars team'' was cool. Just imagine all the support this team would get come on man LOL...... Anyways enjoy this episode cause we sure did. If you disagree with some of our selections add your team in the comments so we can see who you would have. But let's get this conversation going with a "Pasifika Team" man it'll be cool.  Enjoy Malo Aupito........

    "Everyone is against us, We are burning the boats cause there is no more going back without the win." Famous words by the great Tony Iro. 2011 was the last time the New Zealand Warriors made an NRL Grand Final. Are they hard to make? What does it take to do it? How much of a rollercoaster emotionally do you have to deal with? Join us on a journey back into time and listen to Feleti's version of that emotional run to the grand final. All those questions will be answered and more. The warriors hold a place in our hearts as most of the fans are Polynesians and we share the whole ride with them from start of the season right through to the end. Enjoy the Journey and hopefully 2024 can see them warriors in the Grand Final again. UP DA WAHS!!!!!!!

    What a season the Parramatta eels had in 2009. Half way into the season they were sitting near the bottom of the NRL table, all the experts tipped them to win the spoon....but then....''BOOM''....they go on a season reviving run that is still unmatched even till today. All aboard the ''Hayne Plane''. Feleti fills us in with all the good, the bad and the sometimes complex year that they had. Filled with a lot of laughter and stories never heard before, he winds the clock back to give us his recollection of how it all went down that year.
