Samoa piled on the points in a 72-4 win against a gallant Greece side in Doncaster tonight.
It was the Jarome Luai show. The Panthers half just orchestrated the Samoan attack in style and had a hand in the majority of their points and even got himself on the scoresheet as Samoa still aims to qualify from the group.
Embarrassed last week, Samoa got off to the perfect start in their second pool game. They strolled downfield in the first set then a kick high saw Brian To'o touch down.
Jarome Luai who had a quiet game last week, sprung into life in this game. He broke the line well before finding Eels front rower Junior Paulo, who showed off some smarts to chase down a pass which hit a Greek defender for 12-0.
It seemed like Samoa found their mojo this week against Greece. Once again, Luai had his hands all over the play, weaved past the defence before he found Raiders bound Danny Levi for the third score of the first half.
Next it was Luai's halves partner that got into the action. Chanel Harris-Tavita finished off another slick backline move from Samoa and the ghosts from last weekend were truly erased.
On the half hour mark, Royce Hunt rumbled his way over quickly followed by Luai, who was the provider in much of the half got himself on the scoresheet after a quick check to see if he touched the line but it was 36-0.
Tim Lafai rounded off an almost perfect half from Samoa. He was drafted into the squad after some injuries this week and the veteran spied some space behind the ruck and made it 42-0.
Greece might not leave the World Cup with a win but they will leave it with some highlight reel tries. They got off the duck egg in style, a pair of chip kicks, one from their own end ended with Lachlan Ilias getting over the line.
Samoa produced a quick one-two punch to go past the half century. Fa'amanu Brown burrowed over from close range then Stephen Crichton who was kicking them from close range finished off a move that included a between the legs pass.
The points kept coming for Samoa. Harris-Tavita got a double when he chased through a Luai kick then Dragons winger Mathew Faegai had the simple job on the end of a slick Samoa backline to make it 62-4.
Levi got himself involved with the doubles in the main game. He sniffed around the ruck and took the offload from Oregan Kaufusi to dive over then Lafai also made it two tries being on the end of a smooth move to take Samoa past 70 points.
The only downside for Samoa, was a late sin bin to Dragons back rower Jaydn Su'A. He was dismissed for a shoulder to the head on a Greek player who was working the ball from their own line.
