From Morning Report, 7:55 am on 21 June 2019

Fans in black and blue will do their best to stand out in a sea of red at the international rugby league double header in Auckland.

The New Zealand women's team - the Kiwi Ferns - are first up against Samoa, before the men's side - the Kiwis - take on Tonga to start the new Oceania Cup.

The loud and proud Tongan supporters are again expected to be a feature of the occasion.

As Clay Wilson reports - both New Zealand teams are embracing their respective challenges.
