Rugby most violent match - Samoa vs Australia 2011

Alesana Tuilagi was the man of the match in that game.
The Pacific Islanders are well known for their incredible physique and for their big hits on the rugby field. However, you will rarely see a nation like Samoa, Fiji or Tonga win against big teams like South Africa, New Zealand, or Australia. This is why the win of Samoa rugby against Australia in Sydney is absolutely unreal. Not only did they win, but they absolutely destroyed the Wallabies physically putting in some of the biggest hits you will see in a rugby highlight.
Alesana Tuilagi played an essential role in this match, the genetic freak absolutely dominated his opponents and score a crazy counterattack try.

Samoans have some of the hardest tacklers in the world. As a Wasps fan from England I remember with great fondness the days of Trevor Leota, rumoured to have been banned for a time from full contact training because of the risk of injury to his own team mates!! Great video, thanks for the upload!

Greatest Samoan team of the professional era. They also had a great game against the Springboks at the world cup even though they lost.

Gotta respect Samoans who don’t get bought out by other nations and stay to represent their homeland

I was at this game with my cousin who has never been to ANZ stadium or even an International game. To see the tears streaming down his face, the clenched fist to the left side over his Samoan jersey during the anthem with such pride was indeed a memorable moment. And then the game itself..boy did Samoa come to play. From kick off to the final whistle the display from the uso's was phenomenal. To see them make history was a special occasion. This definitely elevated their belief that they still have what it takes leading into the RWC later that year. This was remarkably a historical win on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. To this day my cousin smiles proudly. The cheering "Cheeeewhooo" during that game is still ringing in our ears.

Being a tigers fan I got to see the best of the Samoan Bulldozer. On his day you couldn't get through him and it'd take 2 or 3 people to stop him he was something else! Alesana is a legend!

As a fan of just the NFL I will always have mad respect for these guys and never doubt the toughness of any player in rugby crazy sport.

The way the backline marked their tackles was epic. Stunning performance!!!

I vividly remember how emotional this game was, but I it was a Sunday morning .. My parents cried after the final whistle 🥺❤️

The fact that Samoa could do this before the change in eligibility rules makes this win even better.

I remember watching this game live...from the onset of the test, the very first tackle was devastating and for the rest of the match, the Samoans were delivering such thunderous and by the book hits the Aussies were left hurting and without a response. Absolutely thrilling game to witness.

Can't get enough of this match, great game and display of Samoan talent!! Well done ...amazing to the max!👏🙏🏽💕

Brilliant Samoa, would love to see them rise to that level again. Love from the Green Isle 🇮🇪

In my opinion, Samoa - South Africa 2013 was more unbelievably brutal.

This Samoan team has gotta be the best of all time.

That game flew under the radar. There was no real promotion leading into it and no one was talking about it. I didn’t realise it was on until that day.

Australia had a fair better side and Samoa absolutely smashed them, literally. I’ve never seen a team get belted more than the wallabies did that game haha

[AMF]

Watched this game live here in the states and i cried when the final Whistle went. What a great game by the Manu! Hopefully we can pull some upsets this year in the RWC

I don't know about the '91 team, but from the time I became a Rugby fan till now, this was the best Samoan 15s team!!

Major respect to every rugby player out there, playing a sport like that when your only protection are your muscles is insane

[billmago]
