Uh oh! Samoa’s hat-trick scorer looks to be in all sorts of trouble. From first receiver, Freedom Crichton Ropati almost crawled into a tackle and was clearly in pain.<\/p>\n

“That looked bad from the start,” Andrew Moore said in commentary for Seven.<\/p>\n

“You never like to see players go down without contact,” Emma Verran added.<\/p>\n

England’s earlier surge looks like it has stalled out, and Samoa can probably lock this one away and secure a spot in the semis if they can score again.<\/p>\n
