Australia are deserving champions. No doubt. Congratulations and the greatest respect, however, to Samoa and to all of the Pacific Island nations for their passion for this great game!
I was tipping Samoa to pull this one out infact you matched them in all areas of the game however Samoa lacked flare and was over protective of the ball and too scared in keeping the ball alive for chances that went begging..it was like watching 2 nrl clubs playing ref was also nrl...Rugby league is growing in the pacific one day the pacific tide will change that enough is enough..go Samoa Tonga & PNG you truely showed cause....just my personal world cup view
The first step over a barrier for a islander team a huge leap for all Islanders teams. We'll dominate the next decade of RL. Great work Toa Samoa From PNG.

Was a pleasure to witness the whole event today and all the stories that went with it, Australia were ultimate pros and Samoa gave their best and never feared taking a risk or trying to keep in the game.
I’m a Queenslander who lives in Argentina. I watch Union because there’s no league on TV here. I didn’t even know this game was on. I was watching the pumas Scotland game. At the 61 st minute my father in law asked me how much was on the clock. 10 minutes later he asked me again. 4 minutes of game time had elapsed. There was a lot of time when nothing was happening. The penalties were inexplicable… I go on the you tube and here’s the second half of this game live… what difference… give me league any day.
You are right that there are far too many little technicalities in Union that allow the referees to blow the pea out of there whistle. Now they've made it even worse with the bar for sin bins and send offs being lowered, so we're seeing a flood of those over the last few years to make it even worse. Union is going backwards as a sporting spectacle.
Union has become a joke. The rule changes over the years has taken away the credibily of the game. The refs are not sure. I go way back to the 70s with Union and I feel so sad
👍Congrats to Australia, they have set the Benchmark 3 times in row, for other nations to aspire too. ..but Gallant in defeat for our Toa samoa outfit, as they have Won the hearts of a small island nation..just hope they have inspired the next Generation of NRL Samoan heritage players to turnout for the Blue & white of Samoa...💙❤
Toa Samoa has made us Samoans all over the world so proud 60-6 loss and four players out in their first game ,they made a huge turn around and made the quarter, the semis first time ever ,then beat England in making the final and got the silver medal for finishing second. History has been made so proud of the players faafetai lava manuia Toa Samoa manuia Samoa
Regardless, Samoa should be so proud. A nation of only 2 hundred thousand people, going up against a nation of 25 million. The sport is nothing without the Polynesians. Also, being such a small nation Samoa is, its amazing how much influence they have on the sporting world in general. Heads high Usos. You're are a great people and the whole mf world knows it!
Congrats my country Australia.. But as an Australian, I really need to give this to Samoa. They've done their nation proud, History makers. This is just a beginning, and I assure you that the next World cup will be yours.
@@simonportelli8493 us samoan still made history and if u think it's not a big deal then say to yourself how many time the Aussies gone to the finals and win the tournament then tell yourself how many time us Samoans or any poly team made it to the finals and win the 🏆 this is the first time ever so u gonna respect that💯 yea we didn't win the game but we set the bar💯
@M Nonsense. Rugby League is a far superior game. I understand McDonald's is very popular and that is pure filth. By the way it's called Association Football not soccer.

Congratulations Australia for winning the world cup but A Massive Congratulations to TOA SAMOA for making history for our people and the Pacific Nations .THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING THE RISING OF THE PACIFIC NATIONS PLAYERS..
All of samoas player were born in Australia or New Zealand except Steven Crichton these guys don’t have any respect of the country that they were raised on all they care about is were there parents and grandparents come from and if they decide to represent the country they were raised from as in Australia or New Zealand you Pacific Islanders say they only do it for money the Fijian and png players are all from those country’s and represent them polys have no respect for there country of origin not all poly players but most of you and don’t play in state of origin but not Australia
@@faigavaega5679Caveman mentality speaks volumes. You wanted the Toa Samoa to be the same hype. And it wasn’t from the right place. It wasn’t just about beating Tonga - y’all just wanted to one up Tonga like the jealous insecure sibling that you are. True colours coming out. Just sad man..Pray for you 🙏🏾
The world had no idea what this game is about until Samoa got to the Finals. Who has the most supporters world wide?? Beautiful and exciting Samoans!!! Thank you!
@@kathycurry1034 really that's your excuse for losing. Enjoy while it lasts, all your best players ain't playing for Toa Samoa. So this version, the ones that lost to Oz will be the best y'all every get. Cry some more 🤣🤣
It’s good for international RL that there were so many countries that could’ve made the final. Though I’m glad Australia reminded Luai and Samoa who their daddy is.
The Grand Final of the World Cup and they couldn't even find a proper League field! Those in goals were ridiculously small. It's lucky someone didn't get injured going over the edge.
That has always been the case in England because they often play on football/soccer grounds. Certainly makes it harder to rely on the bomb as an attacking weapon.
Yep . Need to change grounds, they play the grand final there as well in our league competition. 3m in goal area which drops off sharply to metal hoardings ! All about money because has a bigger capacity then more suitable grounds . Won't play it at Wembley because the fan base is mainly up North and they're fed up with having to pay for travel and extortionate food and drink prices at Wembley.
Congratulations to Australia for wining Rw/cup grand final and congrats to png kumuls for making it to final though most of you were second grade clubs players. You made PNG proud.
Major props and respect to the Roos for another RLWC victory and your brilliance and dominance in world cups exceeds that of the All Blacks in rugby union. Toa Samoa your play, grit and determination, far exceeded expectations in this world cup! So proud of my usos! Mate Ma’a Tonga, my tokos, surely gave an underwhelming performance this time as a tier-1 powerhouse and the second ranked behind the Aussies, but there’s always the next RLWC to look forward to as they say. PNG and Fiji will be the ones to look out for in the upcoming years, time will tell, but with this RLWC performance Samoa needs to be elevated to Tier-1. Footy is more suited to our island physicality and ways than union, I’m just saying.
I didn’t watch rugby before. Was just scrolling the trending and found this. It's interesting to see Australia to shine in Football, Cricket and Rugby at the same time!
The rugby league World Cup is like taking candy from a baby for the Aussies, it’s a total waste of time we know who’s gonna win it before the tournament even started.
UNLUCKY SAMOA. FROM A KIWIS SUPPORTER YOU WERE MY SECOND TEAM OF CHOICE IF MY TEAM WAS KNOCKED OUT!!. COMING FROM SOUTH AKLD WE HAVE DEEP CONNECTIONS TO THE PACIFIC ISLANDS. WIN OR LOSE YOU ARE PROUD PEOPLE. NEXT TIME TU MALOSI KIA KAHA 🤜🇳🇿🇼🇸
Congratulations Aus.. Samoa you won our hearts, not only did you carry your flag, nation to the finals, you took the whole Pacific too. You lost 5 players to injuries and have an average coach. Sorry Parish but this team made you look good 🤣🤣.. your star players are still young, next WC could be yours if AndrewJohns takes the helm.. to the Usos that chose money over their motherland, you're just a number and your name will fade away, no longer remembered.. but this Toa team will be talked about for ever.. fa'amalosi Toa Samoa 🇼🇸 ♥️ thank you for a great WC
I attended the final today, disappointed that England weren't in it ( but we didn't deserve to be)but still enjoyed the game.Australia proving as usual that they're the best but well done to Samoa too.Also,how do Aussie fans think that this current team compares to great Kangaroo teams of the past?
It’s a changing of the guard no more cam smith etc.... but I think over time Cleary/Munster combination can get better we’ll have to see New Zealand are looking good
Australia were brilliant. They were deserved victors. Samoa did stand a chance. They competed in the final. No delusion. An abundance of hope and faith in our people from and for our people should not be considered delusional. Congratulations to Australia. Samoa mo Samoa.
Yeah, they got a bit carried away during the week, didn't they? Don't worry, we brought 'em crashing back down to earth. 😉 The hangover begins for Samoa, while the party begins for Australia.
you know and so does Anderw johns know that its just a matter of time, when Samoa or Tonga, Rise up and more NRL Players opt to pl,ay for their heritage nations..''the uprising & movement has already begun...
The only thing that union has over league is international reach. Time the league changes… we need more games between the big teams, especially in the pacific area. Great strides by Samoa and Tonga, and of course PNG means it’s time for more games in the region. And I think where there is rugby in the world the international rugby league needs to start investing.
Won’t happen if they make the origin players have to pick to either play for their state or Samoa/Tonga. That’s why international game won’t grow. It’s a joke
Congratulations Australia for winning the final and congratulations to Samoa for making us the Pacific Islands proud by making it to the finals.

@@simonportelli8493 us samoan still made history and if u think it's not a big deal then say to yourself how many time the Aussies gone to the finals and win the tournament then tell yourself how many time us Samoans or any poly team made it to the finals and win the 🏆 this is the first time ever so u gonna respect that💯 yea we didn't win the game but we set the bar💯
@@simonportelli8493 really? I didn’t notice dummy
@@taiyonatiare7918 uhhh don't worry about it next nrlwc is n 2025 3 more years Toa Samoa will comeback 💯
Oh when I say us poly teams I mean 3rd country not like nz and that I mean Samoans, Kukis, Fiji and Tonga and many more
Congratulations 🇦🇺🦘🏆🥇, Congratulations Toa Samoa 🇼🇸🥈! The 🏝️play also very well! Peter from 🇨🇭👍🏉 League.
@M Lol 😂😂🤣🤣
@M Nonsense. Rugby League is a far superior game. I understand McDonald's is very popular and that is pure filth. By the way it's called Association Football not soccer.
Congrats Australia on winning the World Cup once again you've done our country proud! And also congratulations to Samoa for an history making performance being the first Pacific Island nation to make a final in any World Cup! Love to see it! Well done 👏🏼
Nathan Cleary absolute gun player. Panthers will make it 3 in a row come 2023. Well done Samoa and congrats.
GO MANU!! WIN OR LOSE GOD IS GOOD NO MATTER WHAT!!! GOOD JOB BOYS PROUD OF WHAT YOUVE ACCOMPLISHED!! #🇼🇸🇺🇸🇦🇸 #TOA.STRONG685 .. CONGRATULATIONS TO AUSTRALIA 🦘 ON THE WIN!! PRAISE BE TO GOD!! #JESUS4USALL!
Congratulations Australia for winning the world cup but A Massive Congratulations to TOA SAMOA for making history for our people and the Pacific Nations .THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING THE RISING OF THE PACIFIC NATIONS PLAYERS..
All of samoas player were born in Australia or New Zealand except Steven Crichton these guys don’t have any respect of the country that they were raised on all they care about is were there parents and grandparents come from and if they decide to represent the country they were raised from as in Australia or New Zealand you Pacific Islanders say they only do it for money the Fijian and png players are all from those country’s and represent them polys have no respect for there country of origin not all poly players but most of you and don’t play in state of origin but not Australia
Congrats to both great teams love from hawera nz
Win or lose STILL UP THE TOA SAMOA 💙🇼🇸
Congratulations Samoa. You've done us the pacific islands proud.
These guys just don't loose 🇦🇺
No but they LOSE sometimes.
Loose never though
Congratulations to both Aussie men and womens teams in their Win over (SAMOA) and the (KIWI FERNS)..Both teams to **CLASSY**..
Surely Samoa becomes a tier 1 team now. A few players will have to choose between Samoa and State of Origin
Yeah they are
They beat 2 tier 1 countries this year, tonga and England
Unless they beat New Zealand or Australia then they can be considered a Tier 1 Team
@@sydfieldmasmafua4888they beat tonga, that’s all that matters😂😂😂😂
@@faigavaega5679Caveman mentality speaks volumes. You wanted the Toa Samoa to be the same hype. And it wasn’t from the right place. It wasn’t just about beating Tonga - y’all just wanted to one up Tonga like the jealous insecure sibling that you are. True colours coming out. Just sad man..Pray for you 🙏🏾
Fox looks even faster. Crazy.
Congrats to Australia also congrats to samoa for making the finals 👏 ❤️ 💖
The world had no idea what this game is about until Samoa got to the Finals. Who has the most supporters world wide?? Beautiful and exciting Samoans!!! Thank you!
Still lost
@Simba beatz Australia has YEARS of this boring game. Samoa is a new team. Shame!! if they had lost!!
@@kathycurry1034 really that's your excuse for losing. Enjoy while it lasts, all your best players ain't playing for Toa Samoa. So this version, the ones that lost to Oz will be the best y'all every get. Cry some more 🤣🤣
No tears for me mate. I'm Australian. AFL Fan. Bye!!👏👏
@@kathycurry1034 ia alu loa e fufulu Lou muli babs.
It’s good for international RL that there were so many countries that could’ve made the final. Though I’m glad Australia reminded Luai and Samoa who their daddy is.
bravo à l'Australie ! les samoans peuvent être fiers de leur parcours, ils m'ont fait rêver ! merci aux deux équipes !
The Grand Final of the World Cup and they couldn't even find a proper League field! Those in goals were ridiculously small. It's lucky someone didn't get injured going over the edge.
That has always been the case in England because they often play on football/soccer grounds. Certainly makes it harder to rely on the bomb as an attacking weapon.
Yep . Need to change grounds, they play the grand final there as well in our league competition. 3m in goal area which drops off sharply to metal hoardings ! All about money because has a bigger capacity then more suitable grounds . Won't play it at Wembley because the fan base is mainly up North and they're fed up with having to pay for travel and extortionate food and drink prices at Wembley.
Congratulations to Australia for wining Rw/cup grand final and congrats to png kumuls for making it to final though most of you were second grade clubs players. You made PNG proud.
Toa Samoa’s dreams shattered but they have shown what the Pacific is capable of. Congratulations Aussies.
Well done, Samoa, for successfully getting to the final.
Once again, Australia, congratulations.
🇵🇬👍👌😊
Does anyone know where I can get approx 500 large Australian flags on a stick? I just noticed the rugby results
And that takes Australia's tally to 12 World Cup trophies, out of a possible 16. Wow!
Thank you TOA SAMOA you already win well done boys GB to both teams 👏 👍 🙌
Major props and respect to the Roos for another RLWC victory and your brilliance and dominance in world cups exceeds that of the All Blacks in rugby union. Toa Samoa your play, grit and determination, far exceeded expectations in this world cup! So proud of my usos! Mate Ma’a Tonga, my tokos, surely gave an underwhelming performance this time as a tier-1 powerhouse and the second ranked behind the Aussies, but there’s always the next RLWC to look forward to as they say. PNG and Fiji will be the ones to look out for in the upcoming years, time will tell, but with this RLWC performance Samoa needs to be elevated to Tier-1. Footy is more suited to our island physicality and ways than union, I’m just saying.
I’m proud to be a Samoa, and very proud of my people well done Tama Toa o Samoa 💕
I didn’t watch rugby before. Was just scrolling the trending and found this. It's interesting to see Australia to shine in Football, Cricket and Rugby at the same time!
this is rugby league not rugby
Shine? In football? What did they do?
@@NoName-hg6ccWinning the Asian Cup in 2015?
@@HatterTobias Congratulations but it's just one time isn't it?
The rugby league World Cup is like taking candy from a baby for the Aussies, it’s a total waste of time we know who’s gonna win it before the tournament even started.
Congratulations Kangaroos but well done to our Toa Samoa Team playing with so much pride!! Malo the Tau🙏❤🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸
UNLUCKY SAMOA. FROM A KIWIS SUPPORTER YOU WERE MY SECOND TEAM OF CHOICE IF MY TEAM WAS KNOCKED OUT!!. COMING FROM SOUTH AKLD WE HAVE DEEP CONNECTIONS TO THE PACIFIC ISLANDS. WIN OR LOSE YOU ARE PROUD PEOPLE. NEXT TIME

Congratulations Aus.. Samoa you won our hearts, not only did you carry your flag, nation to the finals, you took the whole Pacific too. You lost 5 players to injuries and have an average coach. Sorry Parish but this team made you look good 🤣🤣.. your star players are still young, next WC could be yours if AndrewJohns takes the helm.. to the Usos that chose money over their motherland, you're just a number and your name will fade away, no longer remembered.. but this Toa team will be talked about for ever.. fa'amalosi Toa Samoa 🇼🇸 ♥️ thank you for a great WC
😍😍😍
Well said👏
The old Trafford groundskeeper gonna have fun cleaning that mess up 😂
I attended the final today, disappointed that England weren't in it ( but we didn't deserve to be)but still enjoyed the game.Australia proving as usual that they're the best but well done to Samoa too.Also,how do Aussie fans think that this current team compares to great Kangaroo teams of the past?
Just as good as the great teams of the past.
@@lift4life332 nah
It’s a changing of the guard no more cam smith etc....
but I think over time Cleary/Munster combination can get better we’ll have to see New Zealand are looking good
There have been better teams and better opponents, it is what it is!
@@garyszabados2545 other nations are getting alot better
Australia boys from land down under congratulations united in treaty ❤️⚫💛💙⚪💚
Australia did what they needed to do. Their second half wasn't the best but still managed to score a few tries.
Fine players, those Samoans, big blokes will come good.
🙏🇦🇺🕯️
Iam proud of australia way to good
No matter wat, samoa made us proud to even be hea💯💯💯
Aussie are and Always will be the KINGS and Queens of League tbh Samoa had NO chance against these Hard core Too clever Aussies
Whoever thought Samoa had any chance of winning this is completely delusional.
Samoans didn’t stand a chance.. they were decimated. The Aussies dismantled them before they even started. Carn the wallabies forever 👏👏👏
@@Gaasman943 you mean the kangaroos ?
@@Gaasman943 not wallabies
Australia were brilliant. They were deserved victors. Samoa did stand a chance. They competed in the final. No delusion. An abundance of hope and faith in our people from and for our people should not be considered delusional. Congratulations to Australia. Samoa mo Samoa.
Congratulations Australia, still big brother 🇵🇬
Really the score and the win no big surprise....
I don't know what's going on. But this looks more exciting than an NFL game!
Great game ozzies, just outclassed the Islanders
One of my favorite sports.
Australia is always first🎉🎉🎉
The hits and running is impressive but i still don't get this game
Where experience has won.
Good 4 the veterans
No more parades in Auckland! Thank you Australia from a kiwi.
Yeah, they got a bit carried away during the week, didn't they? Don't worry, we brought 'em crashing back down to earth. 😉 The hangover begins for Samoa, while the party begins for Australia.
@@AJWRAJWR Yes! They definitely needed to be humbled, you can't imagine how bad they are in Auckland.
They'll still party even though Australia won samoa won everyone's heart
Typical Aussie supporters always trying to put people down
you know and so does Anderw johns know that its just a matter of time, when Samoa or Tonga, Rise up and more NRL Players opt to pl,ay for their heritage nations..''the uprising & movement has already begun...
Why does it say 2021? Are they playing last year
Mal Meninga , legend that he is gave no respect whatsoever regarding the great effort from Samoa. A legend no.more in my eyes .
The only thing that union has over league is international reach. Time the league changes… we need more games between the big teams, especially in the pacific area. Great strides by Samoa and Tonga, and of course PNG means it’s time for more games in the region. And I think where there is rugby in the world the international rugby league needs to start investing.
100%agree

Won’t happen if they make the origin players have to pick to either play for their state or Samoa/Tonga. That’s why international game won’t grow. It’s a joke
@@faigavaega5679 Perhaps other countries could make their own competitions instead of relying on Australia
@@frankmercury2833 lol you think other countries besides Australia, NZ and England have the funds? That’s why this game won’t grow internationally
