Favouritsm and nepotism in PNG NRL

 RUGBY league fans must know why Kokopo has been chosen to play in the Digicel Cup final. 

Is it because of accepting bribery? 

Or are we letting the “white man” manipulate our PNG NRL? 

Every team has worked hard by spending resources and I cannot believe how decisions have been made to suppress, intimidate and marginalised the other teams. 

This year, it is obvious that our PNG NRL management team favoured Rabaul Gurias and Port Moresby Vipers. 

All decisions made were in favour of these two teams. 

How can the sponsors contribute funds to continue this semi-professional football when there is nepotism and favouritism? 

For instance, how can the final be played in Kokopo when the home team of Kokopo is another contender? 

Is it a decision made to suppress and marginalised Wigmen? 

Despite stripping off our home game in the middle of the season without valid reasons, we have come this far and we deserve to play in a neutral venue. 

If the PNG NRL continues to be persistent, then it is obvious that PNG rugby league fans have already witnessed who will become the champion.
