Team PNG Rugby 9s

​Final 15-man rugby 9s team named for Games

The team will be coached by Michael Marum with strength and conditioning coach Jason Tassell to be the trainer while Solomon Kuluniasi is the team manager.

The team was announced by PNG Rugby Football League chairman Sandis Tsaka in a statement today.

The team is dominated by SP Hunters players. Two players Silas Gahuna and Rex Yellon are not members of the Hunters but have proven themselves in the 9s format.

Gahuna and Yellon were members of the Commonwealth Games team that won gold in Glasgow, Scotland in 2014 and the Cabramatta Nines in Sydney early this year.
