Greg Peters: NZ Rugby League CEO on the Pacific Championship final between the Kiwis and Toa Samoa - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

The Pacific Championship wraps this weekend with Sunday’s decider between the Kiwis and Toa Samoa.  

The Kiwis dominated Tonga last week in front of a record 39,000 strong crowd at Eden Park, cinching their spot in the final.  

But even though the Kangaroos aren’t involved, the NRL have decided the final will be hosted in Sydney, despite efforts from the New Zealand Rugby League.  

CEO Greg Peters told Mike Hosking they would’ve loved to have hosted the whole thing in New Zealand, as the two fixtures we did host were pretty successful.  

However, he said, the NRL is the big dog in town, and they wanted content in the Australian market ahead of the World Cup, which is being hosted there next year.
