An official 2011 Tonga Rugby World Cup jersey, autographed by the entire Tongan squad that proudly represented their nation in New Zealand. This rare collector’s item celebrates one of Tonga’s most memorable Rugby World Cup campaigns, where the team showcased their trademark power, passion, and determination against some of the world’s top sides. During the tournament, Tonga faced New Zealand, Canada, Japan, and France, playing with heart and physicality throughout. Their defining moment came in Wellington, where they produced one of the great Rugby World Cup upsets — a historic 19–14 victory over France, who would go on to reach the final. That performance cemented Tonga’s place in World Cup folklore and remains one of their proudest achievements on the global stage.
The jersey features authentic signatures from the entire 2011 Tongan squad, including standout players such as Nili Latu, the inspirational captain and defensive enforcer; Aleki Lutui, the experienced hooker and leader; Siale Piutau, the creative and hard-running centre; Viliami Ma’afu, the powerhouse No. 8; and Kurt Morath, Tonga’s leading points scorer at the tournament.
This signed jersey is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Pacific rugby history - a tribute to Tonga’s unforgettable 2011 World Cup campaign and their fearless brand of rugby.
