The referee is telling Samoa, 'you have to speed the ruck up'. That is killing them at the moment.

Samoa's best play so far - the drop out is played short, and Jeremiah Nanai claims from their own kick to ensure they keep possession.
More of that and we might have a decent game.
England 16-0 Samoa
Samoa, for the third time today, give away a set restart for England for an infringement in the ruck. This one just yards from their line.
The errors pile up.
England can't take advantage as Harry Newman opts for a chip rather than a run into space, allowing Samoa to touch down behind their line for a drop-out.
England 16-0 Samoa
A sprialling, steepling England kick is spilled by Roger Tuivasa-Sheck around 15 metres from his own posts, to the delight of the home crowd.
Sums up Samoa's game so far.

I would say it is the most dangerous English back-line I have seen for a long time.
England 16-0 Samoa
Image source, SWpixOn the evidence so far, this Samoa side look much more limited than the Tonga team who toured England last year.
But you can only beat what's in front of you, and so far England have been ruthless, taking advantage of every Samoan error.

One or two famous faces in the directors' box today. Former Great Britain and Wigan stars Martin Offiah and Denis Betts, who are royalty in these parts, are sitting about eight rows back. And by the looks of it, they are enjoying proceedings so far.
Current Wigan captain Liam Farrell is just over to his left, while moving across codes, Leicester Tigers head coach Michael Cheika is also present.

Harry Newman needs to take a bow, he comes back against the grain.
He had every right to go to ground, but Williams was on the fly and that's too hard to stop.
Williams picks the hole and it's a fair try - a great finish again.
George Williams (21 mins)
Image source, SWpixReplays show that George Williams had broken the tackle, so had ever right to rise off the turf and make the final couple of metres to score England's third try.
Credit to Harry Newman for great work in the build-up too.
It's an easy kick for Harry Smith, he's now two out of three. It ain't bad.
England 10-0 Samoa
England get another set restart while playing in the Samoa half. The visitors are making too many mistakes.
George Williams aims to make the best of the opening with a brutal run through the middle, he thinks he has touched down near the posts. The video referee is checking for double movement however...
England 10-0 Samoa
Image source, SWpixSamoa get their hands on the ball for the first time, and almost make it count.
Captain Jarome Luai with a dangerous carry as they pry out left. Meeting resistance, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck aims a chip kick to the right on the fifth phase - only to see it cut out.
Still, better from the tourists.

England have identified a weakness on Samoa's right-hand-side.
The penalty gives England the opportunity. It was super execution from England. Samoa need to talk about how they handle the late plays of England.
England 10-0 Samoa
So far, this is much more the Samoa team who England beat 60-6 in the 2022 World Cup group stage, rather than the Samoa who beat England in that infamous semi-final.

Anthony Milford shoots out of the line and makes the play for England.
Samoa are over chasing in the corner. Milford creates the play for England. The Samoa defenders are in big trouble.
Paul Rowley
Salford Red Devils head coach on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
This Samoa right-edged defence was poor two years ago, and on the evidence so far, it's still poor. They look really disconnected. It's a fantastic, disciplined start by England.
Matty Ashton (15 mins)
Image source, PA MediaFour tests, four tries for Ashton.
Again England exploit what looks like a weak right side of the Samoan defence. Anthony Milford comes out of the defensive line to try and tackle Herbie Farnworth and ends up leaving a chasm in the back line.
Matty Ashton says thank you, and shakes off two tacklers as he pushes through the space to score England's second try of the game.
Harry Smith pulls his conversion wide this time.
England 6-0 Samoa
Paul Rowley
Salford Red Devils head coach on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
That try was really nicely constructed by England. The whole set battered John Asiata, who missed about three tackles. Kai Pearce-Paul's been in great form all season, and Herbie Farnworth stepped inside the last two defenders. Asiata at the minute looks out of his depth.
England 6-0 Samoa
Samoa almost get in behind with a well-aimed box kick, but Harry Newman plays human barrier perfectly to allow Dom Young to make the catch.
England look well-oiled and disciplined in these early stages.
England 6-0 Samoa
Brian Noble
Former Great Britain coach on BBC Two
Samoa have looked vigorous.
It's not a talent issue for them, it's a discipline issue. You cannot give a dog a bone! The coach [Ben Gardiner] will be aware about that.
England 6-0 Samoa
Samoa haven't really put together an attacking move of note with a little over an eighth of this game gone.
Coach Ben Gardiner has picked a new look side with several debutants. So far they have played like strangers.
