That’s a wrap on a very special Sunday at the Santos National Football Stadium in Port Moresby as four spectacular contests were played out and the name of the PNG NRL team was unveiled.
The festival of footy kicked off with the Junior Orchids and Junior Kumuls taking on the best of Australia’s young talent in the Schoolgirls and Schoolboys sides.
The PM’s XIII women’s and men’s matches then took centre stage with Caitlin Turnbull, Phoenix-Raine Hippi and Trai Fuller taking the tryscoring honours as Australia came up with two victories.
A sensational day of football to whet the appetite for what lies ahead in 2028 when the PNG Chiefs enter the big time.
