AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

World Cup Fallout: After Samoa’s 44–12 semifinal loss to Australia, forward Spencer Leniu criticised the pay gap between the teams, saying Pacific nations carried the tournament while Samoan players received far less. He has been handed a two-match ban for a gesture toward the referee. Rugby League’s Next Chapter: The 2030 men’s and women’s World Cups will be staged across the Pacific and United States, with more teams and eligibility extended to players with a great-grandparent from the nation they represent. Media Freedom: Samoa faced renewed international pressure at a UN review, with several countries urging the government to lift media restrictions and let journalists and news organisations work independently.
