It was the third tournament in a row that the Fijian and Samoan teams met in the final. In
Wellington, Samoa secured it's first win in any of the series (started
1999) and in San Diego, Looking back, Samoa had only won in Hong Kong once, back in 1993, six years before the IRB World Series began. The game was surely a cliche in the fact that it was literally a game of two halves. Samoa
shocked Fiji with 27 rapid fire points to none in the first half. Samoa
won over their Pacific cousins , the score being 27-22. |
