20 - 12 to Samoa

cheers, how are samoa playing? do you think ireland have any chance next game?

Not a prayer

Samoa were cracking.

not a chance

ireland will get tonked

cheers standee

Manu worked his ar@e off first half, played 7,9 and 13, just hope he's ok

Was an outstanding game, it had pretty much everything, even from the beginning, the Haka's of each team to the good commentary and to finish off with an exciting end.

I thought Tony Puletua(sp, Samoan 10)had excellent go forward all game, certainly a big tough prop.
It was a shame for Leo Latu to end up on the losing side with the amount of effort he put into it.

any fighting?

a few head shots, but nothing in particular

No, not really but some huge hits were put in!

Puletua was superb


I wonder who he plays for

Tired badly, good for two tens.

Good game again , It's a shame we dont see more of these teams on tv or on tours.

Bit of a bump again but anywhere in town open on Sunday with a big screen to watch this like Barracuda?

Good game, very enjoyable.

Samoa should be better wih the personnel they have but they plaed in fits and starts. Tonga missed Manu in the second half.

Like I said on the first page of this thread if Tonga had a quality SH they would be a decent team. Mateo is expected to do everything from a creative point of view and its easy to defend against.

A bit like Hull

Lapeni Paea looked like he had plenty of balls to me

Havent got into it yet and doubt i will.

cheesy will be open for brekkie and the rugby (new clarence)

Try standing up in your living room and then get your lass to throw you out, might feel more like watching Hull then
