I hope the govt have some financial rewards for these warriors who has put the name of the country up there with the best of the world. If the sevens team got 2000 each for their great achievement, why not do the same for all well earned performances like these, doesnt hav to be 2000 as these are more than 20players involved but 1000 is a just a good enough gesture to help their families who are struggling with the rising cost of living these days. By the way, there should be an official name for this team as it is a prestigious event, baby manu doesnt sound nice at all, Mighty Manus not bad or Maybe someones got a better name for our young warriors to keep the momentum going Once again, thanks to all the bravehearts who played their hearts out. much luff my brothers Congratulations Boys written by Laau Leavasa, June 23, 2008 Malo boys well done,im so proud of you guys wot you doing for our country.Malo le tau o le taua I think this is a good time for our rugby union to look at a long term 2 keep this players for the future of our game in the country.its time 4 the union to wake up and make a good agreement with this players to keep them in the country to develop there talents 4 da manu b4 they get offer from overseas.The game is professionals now and its time to look for a long term of our game.Good luck for the future guys,i hope some of you guys are in the Manu in the 2011 world cup.God bless ya congratulations baby manu... written by chinaboy, June 24, 2008 hey boys thanks for making us proud especially our sponsored man......you know what our seven's got three winners for our new sponsor and now you guys changed our place in the world junior rank.....well done boys.. congratulations again....ia vaai foi se kamaikiki i maugu aku foi e giu sila......god bless... manuia le vaiaso... wow...........wow...... written by MandyDavid, June 25, 2008 wow congradulations boys, well done im so proud of u all...thank u boys for making us proud, make ai le au koga gae.....lol.....
