That jersey was worn against the All Blacks at North Harbour Stadium in their infamous 102-0 on 16 June 2000. It remains one of the heaviest defeats in test rugby history, with the All Blacks running in 16 unanswered tries. M Molotika wore 18 on that day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo certainly this is a player\/team-issued jersey from 2000. A piece of international rugby history!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePit to Pit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 62cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel to Hem:\u003c\/strong\u003e 85cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Vintage Jerseys are 1-of-1 , once they're gone... they're gone!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5000+ customers · 350 five-star reviews · Worldwide shipping · Official Super Rugby \u0026amp; Wahs Retailer\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boomfa Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50794999709888,"sku":"ROW310","price":40600.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/3796\/0640\/files\/IMG_6252_3.jpg?v=1794541060","url":"https:\/\/boomfavintage.com\/en-jp\/products\/1999-tonga-jersey-18-2xl","provider":"Boomfa Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
