Anthems concluded, Samoa will perform their traditional warcry
This will be just the sixth meeting between these two sides. Samoa picked up a 32-33 victory in the last encounter between the two sides in 2011. But had lost their previous four meetings by an average margin of 39 points.
Welcome to country and then it's time for the anthems
