What they will not forget is if one, two or all three pasifika teams ( Fiji, Samoa and Tonga) knock out tier 1 teams in the World Cup pool stages, qualify to the quarters or semis or finals or even win the Web Ellis cup. Center Stage is all that matters.

Yes Fiji could beat Wales and lost to Portugal like it did in the last world cup just because their focus was high on the tier 1 teams Aust and Wales in their pool games. Uruguay created the upset of the second day whatsoever. Hope it won't repeat in the coming RWC. The lesson is treat all teams equal in strength until the eggs are hatched. Tonga Samoa and Fiji can go there and beat all the teams in their pool and make the finals. We have been ignored by IRB by allowing International rugby houses monopolizing our boys. A system which befit their machinery at the expense of our natural talent. ...Their investment...The examples of Radradra, Pitau, Savea to many many others is the profiting product earned by them yet unshared to the islands. Rules are made to be amended . Would love to see more changes be made by the controlling body. Vinaka.

Not sure who the defense coach for Samoa is, but their line speed and chase lines have been poor both in Japan and at home. Our starting front row looked very small compared to fiji and it really showed with us losing the scrums and not being big or strong enough to keep the Fijians from getting across the gain line. Samoa really lost the battle up front in the first half and it was only when the replacement hooker for Samoa, who was excellent, came on that they started making more meters. Subbing in the larger bench props also stabilised our scrum. I'm not sold on Enari, his passing is very inaccurate and he's not a threat with ball in hand around the rucks. Melani really got them moving when he came on. Perhaps more of the sevens boys should be in the 15s team 🤔 Danny Toala very average again with bad hands a feature for him in every match. Hopefully Maposua is getting a clearer idea of who should be in the starting squad now and they can gel more in their next game against Tonga. The boys need to do more work off the ball though especially with their d lines. I'm looking forward to Tonga next week. Go Manu.

Fiji could genuinely get to the quarter finals. As an Irish insane rugby fanatic, I hope they do!
Buda fiji 🇫🇯 well done and its kava time! 🍺 My Samoa 🇼🇸 we need to do better. Learn from it and move on. Good luck! 🇫🇯 🇼🇸✌️
From a Fijian supporter…everyone will forget this game when the sun rises on Sunday morning and all other PNC games remaining for that matter. What they will not forget is if one, two or all three pasifika teams ( Fiji, Samoa and Tonga) knock out tier 1 teams in the World Cup pool stages, qualify to the quarters or semis or finals or even win the Web Ellis cup. Center Stage is all that matters.
This is all warm up matches for the pacific teams.the process of testing players for the world cup .well done both teams.
Dominant performance from Fiji but those first two Samoa tries and the conversion were sublime too. Don’t fancy being on the receiving end of that end-of game hit; bet his ears were still ringing when the whistle went.

Excellent effort from the Drua boys despite fizzling out a bit in the 2nd half, makes the squad competition a real headache for the coach.

Fiji too strong for us in that first half, but as we all know with rugby, anything can happen… but the better team won today 👌🏽
Pnc this year is not only Fiji, Tonga and Samoa.😅😅😅when we playing each other we have a sprinkle of All Blacks and wallabies in the mix . So basically Fiji, Samoa, Tonga ,All Blacks and Wallabies. What a competition
Brilliant rugby from both sides! Looking forward to the World Cup clashes for both these teams.

Imagine having a perfect win streak in pnc just to get to the world cup and get a cricket score sassing by the tier 1 nations. Good work Fiji. Good effort Manu

Yes Fiji could beat Wales and lost to Portugal like it did in the last world cup just because their focus was high on the tier 1 teams Aust and Wales in their pool games. Uruguay created the upset of the second day whatsoever. Hope it won't repeat in the coming RWC. The lesson is treat all teams equal in strength until the eggs are hatched. Tonga Samoa and Fiji can go there and beat all the teams in their pool and make the finals. We have been ignored by IRB by allowing International rugby houses monopolizing our boys. A system which befit their machinery at the expense of our natural talent. ...Their investment...The examples of Radradra, Pitau, Savea to many many others is the profiting product earned by them yet unshared to the islands. Rules are made to be amended . Would love to see more changes be made by the controlling body. Vinaka.

I gotta say, Fiji joining Super Rugby has done wonders to the players. The level of competition (minus AUS) has made the guys a lot more experienced. It's great to see.

Building the team around our Drua Team has certainly raised the bar for footy in the team. All we need to do now is perfect it and go the full 80. Our pacific brothers 2nd half performance shows the capabilities in their squad. They'd be a force to be reckoned off if they to perfect their games. All the best to all the pacifika teams in this World Cup.
Thanks for the upload…
Semi is probably the best center to play since BOD. Perfect decision making every time and now that teams double up on him every time he's using is distribution skills more than his running. He's in the World 15 for sure.
Well done Fiji but Samoa man I was pissed off I’m hoping they pick the right boys Fiji had most local players they came to play I don’t know if we still in holiday mode I like our forwards but man that was disappointing I’m hoping they will play better next game and have the right players
Wow, what an epic clash of rugby titans! 🏉🔥 Samoa and Fiji delivered an intense and thrilling match in the Pacific Nations Cup 2023. The level of skill, strength, and passion displayed by both teams was nothing short of awe-inspiring. The hard hits, impressive tries, and strategic gameplay had us on the edge of our seats throughout. Congratulations to both sides for putting on such a sensational show! This match truly exemplifies the spirit of rugby and the camaraderie between these Pacific nations. Can't wait for more action-packed games in this tournament! 🇼🇸🇫🇯 #RugbyClash #SamoaVsFiji #PacificNationsCup2023 #IntenseMatch #RugbyPassion #Sportsmanship
Excellent play by Fiji. A well deserved win. Fiji the only Pacific's hope for this year's world cup. Samoa needs young fresh players. The team is full of worn out ex all balcks and wallabies lol
You the goat🙏
Simi Kuruvoli knows how to deal with this forwads
Not sure who the defense coach for Samoa is, but their line speed and chase lines have been poor both in Japan and at home. Our starting front row looked very small compared to fiji and it really showed with us losing the scrums and not being big or strong enough to keep the Fijians from getting across the gain line. Samoa really lost the battle up front in the first half and it was only when the replacement hooker for Samoa, who was excellent, came on that they started making more meters. Subbing in the larger bench props also stabilised our scrum. I'm not sold on Enari, his passing is very inaccurate and he's not a threat with ball in hand around the rucks. Melani really got them moving when he came on. Perhaps more of the sevens boys should be in the 15s team 🤔 Danny Toala very average again with bad hands a feature for him in every match. Hopefully Maposua is getting a clearer idea of who should be in the starting squad now and they can gel more in their next game against Tonga. The boys need to do more work off the ball though especially with their d lines. I'm looking forward to Tonga next week. Go Manu.

Some Fiji players are making the decision making process for the coach too easy not to pick them for the WC for their lackluster performance. A lot of players a making it difficult for him by playing well.
Je pensais que cette équipe B des Fidji nivellerait leur supériorité sur leurs voisins Samoans mais non, ils sont vraiment surprenants et talentueux. Un seul exemple Radradra, Waisea et Tuisova pour 2 places au centre auxquels on pourrait rajouter Botia ! Et c'est essai de la 30ème minute, mamma mia.... France 💗 Fidji I thought this B team from Fiji would equalize their superiority over their Samoan neighbors but no, they are really surprising and talented. A single example Radradra, Waisea and Tuisova for 2 places in the center to which we could add Botia! And it’s try at 30-minute, mamma mia.... France ❤🔥Fiji

They need to move ravuataumada to fullback and put tuisova back at wing. Ravutaumada is really good at fullback as seen when he played against reds at fullback. He is quick but he isnt strong enough to be at wing since opposing backliners tackle him very easy due to his size.
