Not sure about the answer to your first question but with your 2nd question the answer is "NO".

The PNG team is now picked from players playing in the National Soccer League (NSL) and Rapatona FC do not have a team in that Competition.

The PNG team is dominated by Hekari Untied FC players.

Chique Posman was before selected only because of his surname....he really is a useless fat player....

ok i see. well i don't intend getting into a slanderous exchange here, but i went to school with chique and played in the same team with him at times and there is no doubt he was one of the best in the country or at least pom and he was starring at a young age.

you have your opinion though..i just wanted to know if they were still playing and at international level.

in international football often players are selected on their reputation or past form and usually sit the bench, but if you're consistently in the first 11 then there's definitely a real reason you're there.

Picked on merit

November 25 2011, 8:37 AM 

Since Frank Fariner became the Mens National Coach he has made sure that players are picked on merit and not on reputation.

This was clear for all to see with the team that went to the SP Games and the good performances that they put in.

And he only took players that were 100% fit, who had no small niggling injuries and who had a lot of game time during the season.

He even left star Hekari Stricker Kema Jack out of the team because he had missed a large part of the season with injury and was not 100% fit to play in the National Team.
