‘Once in a lifetime opportunity’: Fifita and the Foxx back calls for Indigenous team at World Cup

Trying to wrap my head around this one. Not that anything makes much sense in Covidworld.

Surely this idea has to be dead on arrival. If it's ok for an indigenous team to go, it's got to be ok for the national team to go.....?

Opportunism unnecessarily risking lives.

I would love to see them represent Australia, but there is a risk.

The players will be in for a tough few months.Playing out of hubs for the rest of this season then having to deal with either lockdown in NSW or quarantine upon return to Australia after the WC.I’d be surprised if players with young families would be keen to go through all that.On another note,is Fifita making himself available for both an Indigenous team and the Tongans?
