Robert Toia undecided on World Cup representation between Australia and Tonga

Sydney Roosters centre Robert Toia faces uncertainty regarding his national representation for the 2026 Rugby League World Cup, which begins on October 15. After playing for Tonga in 2025, Toia has garnered interest from both Australian and Tongan officials, as he has commitments to both nations. The competition for spots on the Kangaroos includes notable players such as Kotoni Staggs and Latrell Mitchell. Currently, Toia is focused on the Grand Final and has not confirmed his decision to either national camp. The Australian squad is expected to be revealed soon as selections continue amid injury concerns for other players.
