One change in Samoan side to face South Africa

Samoa have put their faith in the players who gave England a big fright for their all-or-nothing match against South Africa at Suncorp Stadium tomorrow night.

They have named a team with one forced change for the Springbok clash - at centre where experienced Terry Fanolua, who broke a thumb during the 35-22 loss to England, is replaced by former Highlander and Otago back Romi Ropati.

Coach John Boe described Ropati as "an excellent player" and was sure he would be ready for the arguably the most critical game in Samoa's rugby history.
