Australia’s Hidden Weapon Against PNG’s Human Resources.

Australia’s “hidden weapon” isn’t just on the rugby field — it’s in the way rugby league has quietly taken control of Papua New Guinea’s youth. The sport, celebrated as PNG’s national passion, is draining the country’s most valuable resource: its people. Thousands of young men and women spend endless hours chasing professional dreams in rugby, while education, skills development, and leadership opportunities slip through their fingers. What looks like sport is, in effect, a strategy. Australia’s influence through rugby league is pulling PNG’s brightest minds away from classrooms and careers, leaving the nation vulnerable and dependent. While a few stars make it to the big leagues, the majority are left with lost time, missed opportunities, and weakened prospects — all while the nation’s human potential is quietly eroded. This documentary exposes how a beloved game has become a subtle weapon: shaping minds, draining ambition, and weakening PNG’s workforce. It’s time to ask the hard questions — is rugby league truly a sport, or a carefully cultivated distraction?#RugbyLeague #PapuaNewGuinea #Australia #HumanResources #EducationCrisis, #png #jamesmarape #colonialism
