IRB Sevens Classic Finals: Fiji v Samoa, Wellington 2007

Relive this hyper-physical Cup final between Pacific Island heavyweights Fiji and Samoa at the 2007 NZL Sevens in Wellington, where Lolo Lui helped inspire the Samoans to a first ever Cup title in the IRB Sevens World Series.

Bula... it’s April 12th 2021 Spring and I wanted to see an exciting Final.... I believe this is one of the best Finals ever.... raw talent and physique.... The young USO’s really fired up that season.... Hope to see the Young Samoans step up this season...

[@nazeemali2098]

Excellent game from both sides but tight defence from Samoans was awesome victory

[@COOLJOEFIJI]

well done my samoan brothers....Respect from the fiji isles.

I'm Fijian but this Samoan team was seki asf. Wish to see these types of players soon for Samoa. I know they have more of them back in the Islands. Much love🔥

[@augafapetelo2331]

May have been a long time ago, but it's never been forgotten, it's a greatest ever victorious team

[@deazzpeath6072]

It will never be the same Samoan 7

[@JrRyder44]

Historic night for Samoa. Fiji have been dominating for so long that this win meant so much to them. I was there that night and the atmosphere was crazy. Sad to see the state of the Wellington 7s now not as fun anymore

First time watching this. Awesome Game. CONGRATULATIONS to Manu Samoa and Fiji. Much Love from San Diego, California 😁

[@anonymouspacificislander1630]

I can honestly say that this Samoan team deserved it. Fiji been hogging the light for a while and need to share with Samoa. What a way to do it Samoa✌😎 I remember the energy between my mates, was so cool and funny because we both win and lose to each other throughout that year😂 And just tease each other😂😂😂😂😂😂 Samoa/Fiji Fiji/Samoa✌💪💪💪
