The Canadian Men’s national rugby team is set to compete in the Pacific Nations Cup, with Head Coach Kingsley Jones announcing his gameday roster for their upcoming match against Tonga. The game is scheduled to kick off at 2:00 AM on Saturday morning from Tokyo, Japan.

Jones has selected three players from the Hounds for the roster: lock/flanker Mason Flesch, Number Eight Lucas Rumball, and scrumhalf Jason Higgins. These players have been consistent figures within the Canadian lineup over recent months.

"They’ll be expected to continue providing veteran leadership through the remainder of the Pacific Nations Cup," said Jones, highlighting particularly Rumball, who serves as the Canadian captain.
