Tonga have announced their squad for the Rugby World Cup which will be captained by the France-based loose forward Finau Maka and coached by his brother Isitolo Maka.
There are six overseas players in the squad including New Zealand-based Taniela Moa.
The former captain Nili Latu, who led Tonga at the last World Cup, was surprisingly left out having not played in any of the warmup games.
Tonga has been drawn in Pool A alongside France, Japan, Canada and the All Blacks who Tonga play in the opening game of the tournament.
