Watching Namibia attempt to tackle Samoa was like watching a tennis ball try to tackle a racket, as the Namibians just kept bouncing off, leading to one Samoan try after another.

It only took 49 seconds for Samoa to score their first try, when Kahn Fotuali'i broke two tackles before downing the ball. It continued from there with Samoa scoring six tries and nailing three penalty goals for the game.

The Samoan attack was quick and moved with the fluidity of a tide rolling onto a beach, covering a lot of ground easily. And when it looked as though Namibia was ready to step up to make a tackle, the Samoans would simply lower their shoulder and run over the defense.

I expected the Samoans to control both the pace and the physicality of this match, but I really underestimated the explosiveness of the Samoan's offense, and the ease at which they score.

Such a dominating performance, and a really balanced showing for the entire squad, could serve the Samoans well in their match on the 18th against Wales.

Wales is coming off of a hard one-point loss at the hands of defending champion South Africa, and if their spirits are anywhere as low as the Welsh press following that match, Samoa should make mince meat out of them.

But with Wales sitting firmly at No. 6 in the world, it should be a fantastic contest.
