1988 Rugby Union match: Bridgend vs Manu Samoa (highlights)

[@robertroberts3703]

Couple of lads from the Caerphilly area playing for Bridgend in Paul Kawulok and Arwel Parry. Great memories!

Yes, Jerome Grey had changed the Samoan War dance with his Le Manu Samoa composition.....Before that the Samoan war dance was Oi Moa ae. In a Samoan cultural context the Oi Moa ae is considered verbally more threatening and profound as a war challenge than the Manu Samoa....But, that is only amongst Samoans. Some of these players from the Samoan touring team were my contemporaries from the SCOPA Samoan team. Phineas Young is from Apia and he is my kin from my Apia Village, from the Sa Tuiletufuga family, my mother's father side. Anetale'a Aiolupo, and Ken Sio were from SCOPA Club which I had played for as well as the Seng Meng Raiders team, which included Taufusi Salesa, (Moata'a) the senior Veteran on this squad. This team was led by Lolani Koko (Moata'a Club).

Ma'ulu'ulu Moa before the siva tau days

MusikaMalie84, siva tau is a modified dance. It can be a ma’ulu’ulu or sasa or any type of Samoan dance that can be modified to be a siva tau.

Samoa always goto to the tackle but no skills but they strong tho lol

[@theephraimite]

What a stupid comment. Samoa has won many global competitions despite being a small and poor nation with a small population.
