TNRL appeal against its expulsion has been adjourned until December Featured
23 September, 2020. Tonga National Rugby League's appeal against its expulsion from the sport's global governing body has been adjourned until December.
TNRL was expelled from the International Rugby League in March, after a long-running battle over governance, money and a threatened player boycott.
But the date of the hearing has been vacated.
TNRL Secretary William Edwards says the IRL have advised the Court the time allocated for the hearing was not sufficient, after TNRL filed 12 witness statements on September 7.
IRL Global Operations Manager Danny Kazandjian previously told RNZ Pacific that both legal teams were working together on some preliminary issues.
