    New Zealand coach Michael Maguire is praising the return of Benji Marshall to the Kiwis line up

    New Zealand coach Michael Maguire is praising the return of Benji Marshall to the Kiwis line up

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    Marshall along with fellow-half Shaun Johnson helped steer New Zealand to a convincing 34-14 victory over Tonga in their Pacific Nations test in Auckland.

    The 34-year-old was visibly emotional pre-match in his return to international league after a seven year absence.

    Maguire says Marshall did a great job to overcome the pre-match jitters, and linked up well with his other teammates.

    He says Marshall's grateful, and he along with Johnson, Brandon Smith and Roger Tuivasa-Sheck were all strong in the spine.

    Meanwhile Samoa have beaten Papua New Guinea 24-6, while Fiji have thumped Lebanon 58-14
