I believe Fiji smoked Samoa like 60 odd points in pool play, a real demolition from them but to have Samoa turn it around in the final was nothing but remarkable.

That Samoan guy trying to hug the ref. Ref wasn't having anything more than a handshake. Probably scared Samoan would accidentally snap him in half.😂😂

Good Game Samoa, only left our brothers from Tonga to come back in 7s.

Two of the smallest countries in the world’s vying for a tournament championship! Fiji 900 thousand. Samoa 180 thousand.

I don't think Fiji will compete if Samoa had the same population 😂 it will be the other way around
