That should have been a Samoa try. Shawn Blore had Jake Tago outside him, but elected to go himself. My word, they're asking some questions of England.

That was very clever from Jarome Luai. Absolute quality. A little deft chip kick with a bit of backspin, and claimed tremendously well, one-handed. What skill from Shawn Blore to reel that ball in. That's a great try for Samoa. It's a high-quality game.
We have our first sight of former All Black Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, playing in the backs for Samoa today. He makes a fine overhead catch and sets up a Samoa attack.

Samoa got it right today regarding their Siva Tau. Unfortunately the Samoan discipline has already been shown as poor with a clear yellow card offence. The referee must not casually dish out warnings for foul play.
