Tonga is among 10 teams vying for the final men's qualifying berth in Tokyo. Photo: Supplied The Tonga Rugby Union announced last month it would only select players based in Europe for the qualifying tournament in Monaco, because of travel difficulties caused by Covid-19. Tonga men's sevens coach Tevita Tu'ifua said an initial list of 43 names had been trimmed to 23, which includes two ex All Blacks and a former Wallaby. "We have got a few (high profile) names pop up and we still need to rank our priorities list and then we work from there to finalise our selection," he said.
