Samoa change for Scots

By Online Editors
Wednesday 24 Nov 2010

Samoa have made one change for their one-off Test against Scotland in Aberdeen on Saturday, with Toulouse’s Census Johnston coming in at tighthead prop in place of Anthony Perenise.

Perenise, in the starting line-up in the 13-26 defeat to England last weekend, drops to the bench in the team announced on Wednesday.

There is one switch among the replacements, with Bordeaux flank Daniel Leo named in place of the injured Gavin Williams.

A wintry welcome awaited Samoa on their arrival in Scotland with some members of their squad encountering snow for the very first time in Aberdeen.

Head coach Fuimaono Tafua said: “There are a lot of players from Samoa who have not seen snow before.”

But the Pacific islanders are more than happy to play in Aberdeen, rather than in Edinburgh at Murrayfield.

“It’s a very good opportunity for us,” added Tafua.

Samoa: 15 Paul Williams, 14 David Lemi, 13 George Pisi, 12 Seilala Mapusua, 11 Alesana Tuilagi, 10 Tasesa Lavea, 9 Kahn Fotuali’i, 8 George Stowers, 7 Manaia Salavea, 6 Ofisa Trevarinus, 5 Kane Thompsen, 4 Filipo Lavea Levi, 3 Census Johnston, 2 Mahonri Schwalger (captain), 1 Sakaria Taulafo.
Replacements: 16 Ti’i Paulo, 17 Anthony Perenise, 18 Iosefa Tekori, 19 Afa Aiono, 20 Junior Poluleuligaga, 21 Daniel Leo, 22 Fautua Otto.

Date: Saturday, November 27
Venue: Pittodrie Stadium, Aberdeen
Kick-off: 14.30 (14.30 GMT)
Referee: Steve Walsh (Australia)
Assistant referees: Marius Jonker and Cobus Wessels (both South Africa)
TMO: Tony Redmond (Ireland)
